Clean sheets

3.76 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 1 clean sheet across 17 appearances.

Strengths

  • Defensive volume. 3.76 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 13.3% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.

Outlook

Rated 48.7 overall — a solid contributor and squad regular. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (3.76 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). At 21 the trajectory points up — potential sits near its ceiling (97/100) and market value should climb as minutes and output follow. With this floor already at 21, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.
