Clean sheets

2.42 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 11 clean sheets across 43 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (4th 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 7 goals and 2 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Availability. On the pitch for 92.2% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
  • Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.21 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central defender.

Watch points

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

Outlook

With a Rating of 75.6, Harwood-Bellis carries the 2nd-highest potential of the centre-backs in the Championship (top 3%). Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.42 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead.
