Clean sheets

60 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — high defensive volume across 1 appearance. Behind an upper-table side (6th of 20) 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. 60 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.
Pedigree. Performing in a top-tier setting (team strength 97.4/100).
Ceiling. High potential at just 16 — room to grow into a bigger role.

Watch points

Game time. Only 0.2% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.

Outlook

Rated 73.1 overall — elite — among the best in the position. Defensively he reads as high defensive volume (60 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). At 16 the trajectory points up — potential sits near its ceiling (100/100) and market value should climb as minutes and output follow. With this floor already at 16, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.
