Output in context · Maccabi Haifa finished 5th of 6 · a relegation-threatened side
4.76 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 7 clean sheets across 33 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (5th of 6) 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 0 goals and 2 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Availability. On the pitch for 65.9% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
- Defensive volume. 4.76 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.
Watch points
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
With a Rating of 32.8, Bataille carries the 15th-highest potential of the full-backs in the Ligat Ha'al of 27, and he is posting that for a relegation-threatened side (Maccabi Haifa finished 5th of 6) — 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 solid defensive volume (4.76 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.
