Clean sheets

4.22 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 2 clean sheets across 35 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (6th of 24) 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

  • Availability. On the pitch for 72.4% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
  • Defensive volume. 4.22 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

  • Few red flags. No obvious weaknesses in the current-season profile — consistency is the next test.

Outlook

With a Rating of 49.8, Fusire carries the 2nd-highest potential of the defensive midfielders in the League One (top 17%). Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (4.22 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). At 21 the trajectory points up — potential sits near its ceiling (97/100) and market value should climb as minutes and output follow. With this floor already at 21, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.
