Clean sheets

5.08 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — high defensive volume, with 3 clean sheets across 20 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (4th of 12) 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.

Market valueRating

Solid = now · dashed = projected

The gold line is market value — an index (not €) blending rating, age and league. It climbs through the early 20s, peaks around ages 23–27 (~6), then tapers with age. At 28, Rüegg sits on 3.6, past its peak and easing. The blue line is Rüegg's projected Rating — 28.9 today — recomputed at each age, so it follows the same rise-and-fall as a career matures and declines. Solid = up to today; dashed = projected.
