Clean sheets

2.99 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 7 clean sheets across 26 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (4th 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 0 goals and 3 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.15 goal involvements per 90, useful for a full-back.
  • Pedigree. Performing in a top-tier setting (team strength 94.5/100).

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 53.3% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.

Outlook

With a Rating of 81.8, Ruggeri carries the 12th-highest potential of the full-backs in the La Liga (top 19%). Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.99 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90), with a bit more on the ball than most in the role. Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead.
