Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 28 → 32). Across the 4 seasons we hold, it's his best return yet.

Clean sheets

5.23 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — high defensive volume, with 6 clean sheets across 27 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (18th of 20) is harder than the bare numbers suggest: a back line under more pressure has to defend more often and protects fewer leads, so the volume — and any clean sheets — carry real weight. Going forward he chipped in 2 goals and 0 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Availability. On the pitch for 61.9% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
  • Defensive volume. 5.23 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

  • Age curve. At 33, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 18.1, Llonch carries the 26th-highest potential of the defensive midfielders in the Eerste Divisie of 26, and he is posting that for a relegation-threatened side (Helmond Sport finished 18th of 20) — individual numbers are harder to earn on a struggling team, so his underlying level likely sits a touch above the ranking. Defensively he reads as high defensive volume (5.23 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.7× and falling).
