Clean sheets

5.52 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — high defensive volume, with 3 clean sheets across 20 appearances. Going forward he chipped in 1 goal and 0 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Defensive volume. 5.52 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 37.7% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.

Outlook

With a Rating of 52.8, Bawuah carries the 7th-highest potential of the defensive midfielders in the Eerste Divisie (top 27%). Defensively he reads as high defensive volume (5.52 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.
