Clean sheets

4.01 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 2 clean sheets across 9 appearances.

Strengths

  • Defensive volume. 4.01 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 18.1% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 31.5, Cercel carries the 8th-highest potential of the centre-backs in the Liga I of 51 — though on just 9 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (4.01 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). At 19 the trajectory points up — potential sits near its ceiling (99/100) and market value should climb as minutes and output follow.
