Clean sheets

3.35 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 1 clean sheet across 15 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (3rd of 20) 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 1 goal and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.39 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central midfielder.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 13.4% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.

Outlook

Rated 49.5 overall — a solid contributor and squad regular. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (3.35 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90), with a bit more on the ball than most in the role. Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead. With this floor already at 23, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.
