Clean sheets

3.96 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 7 clean sheets across 25 appearances. Behind a title-challenging side (2nd of 16) the side controls more games, so the defensive load is lighter — the value sits as much in composure and ball progression as in raw volume. Going forward he chipped in 2 goals and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.2 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central defender.
  • Defensive volume. 3.96 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 55% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Age curve. At 35, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 13.1, Aleesami carries the 34th-highest potential of the centre-backs in the Eliteserien of 34. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (3.96 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.6× and falling).
