Clean sheets

3.96 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume across 3 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (4th of 24) 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.

Strengths

  • Defensive volume. 3.96 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.
  • Ceiling. High potential at just 19 — room to grow into a bigger role.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 4.2% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.

Outlook

Rated 59.5 overall — a strong, regular top-tier starter. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (3.96 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. With this floor already at 19, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.
