Clean sheets

2.15 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 2 clean sheets across 12 appearances.

Strengths

  • Pedigree. Performing in a top-tier setting (team strength 89.6/100).

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 15.5% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Age curve. At 38, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

Rated 7 overall — below regular-starter level. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.15 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.5× and falling).
