Output in context · Manchester City finished 2nd of 20 · a title-challenging side
3.02 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 13 clean sheets across 34 appearances. Behind a title-challenging side (2nd 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. Going forward he chipped in 1 goal and 5 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Availability. On the pitch for 83.8% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
- Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.19 goal involvements per 90, useful for a full-back.
- Pedigree. Performing in a top-tier setting (team strength 99.5/100).
Watch points
- Few red flags. No obvious weaknesses in the current-season profile — consistency is the next test.
Outlook
With a Rating of 78.6, Nunes carries the 28th-highest potential of the full-backs in the Premier League of 64. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (3.02 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90), with a bit more on the ball than most in the role. In the prime window — at or near peak market value, so the next two seasons are the ones to cash in or build around.
