Clean sheets

2.36 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 5 clean sheets across 21 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (5th 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 1 goal and 0 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 31.1% 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 35.7, Lytvynenko carries the 8th-highest potential of the central midfielders in the Premier League of 28 — though on just 21 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.36 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead.
