Clean sheets

3.21 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 11 clean sheets across 41 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (5th 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 3 goals and 0 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Availability. On the pitch for 90.7% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.

Watch points

  • Few red flags. No obvious weaknesses in the current-season profile — consistency is the next test.

Outlook

With a Rating of 51.3, Antonini carries the 27th-highest potential of the centre-backs in the Serie B of 52. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (3.21 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.2× now → 0.9× projected in three years).
