Strengths
- Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.16 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central defender.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 18% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
- Age curve. At 32, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
Rated 16.1 overall — below regular-starter level. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.38 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.8× and falling).
