Clean sheets

1.88 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume, with 2 clean sheets across 27 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (13th of 16) is harder than the bare numbers suggest: a back line under more pressure has to defend more often and protects fewer leads, so the volume — and any clean sheets — carry real weight. Going forward he chipped in 2 goals and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.22 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central midfielder.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 44.4% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Defensive numbers. Modest 1.88 defensive actions per 90 for the position.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 22.9, Haoqian carries the 13th-highest potential of the central midfielders in the Super League (top 25%), and he is posting that for a lower-table side (Wuhan Three Towns finished 13th of 16) — individual numbers are harder to earn on a struggling team, so his underlying level likely sits a touch above the ranking. Defensively he reads as light defensive volume (1.88 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). In the prime window — at or near peak market value, so the next two seasons are the ones to cash in or build around.
