Clean sheets

4.19 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 4 clean sheets across 13 appearances. Behind a title-challenging side (1st of 6) 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 2 goals and 0 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.23 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central midfielder.
  • Defensive volume. 4.19 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 22.1% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 34.6, Rădulescu carries the 4th-highest potential of the central midfielders in the Liga I of 40 — though on just 13 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (4.19 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). At 20 the trajectory points up — potential sits near its ceiling (98/100) and market value should climb as minutes and output follow.
