Clean sheets

7 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — high defensive volume across 1 appearance. Going forward he chipped in 1 goal and 0 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 1 goal involvements per 90, useful for a full-back.
  • Defensive volume. 7 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 5.9% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

Rated 26.3 overall — below regular-starter level. Defensively he reads as high defensive volume (7 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.1× now → 0.8× projected in three years).
