Clean sheets

1.72 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume, with 2 clean sheets across 17 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (4th 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.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 10.2% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.

Outlook

Rated 54.1 overall — a solid contributor and squad regular. Defensively he reads as light defensive volume (1.72 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). 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.
