Clean sheets

1.88 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume, with 1 clean sheet across 15 appearances. Going forward he chipped in 1 goal and 0 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.21 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central midfielder.
  • Ceiling. High potential at just 19 — room to grow into a bigger role.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 17.1% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.

Outlook

Rated 71.9 overall — elite — among the best in the position. Defensively he reads as light defensive volume (1.88 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). At 19 the trajectory points up — potential sits near its ceiling (99/100) and market value should climb as minutes and output follow. With this floor already at 19, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.
