Output in context · NEC Nijmegen finished 3rd of 18 · an upper-table side
6.92 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — high defensive volume across 1 appearance. Behind an upper-table side (3rd of 18) 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.
Strengths
- Defensive volume. 6.92 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.
- Ceiling. High potential at just 19 — room to grow into a bigger role.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 0.4% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
Outlook
Rated 58.8 overall — a strong, regular top-tier starter. Defensively he reads as high defensive volume (6.92 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.
