Clean sheets

3.73 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 4 clean sheets across 32 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (15th of 20) 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.

Strengths

  • Defensive volume. 3.73 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.
  • Pedigree. Performing in a top-tier setting (team strength 88.9/100).

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 48.5% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.

Outlook

With a Rating of 47.1, Pétrot carries the 46th-highest potential of the full-backs in the La Liga of 65, and he is posting that for a lower-table side (Elche finished 15th of 20) — 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 (3.73 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.1× now → 0.8× projected in three years).
