Judged on this season alone, Sikhakhane graded 14 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 28th of 35 of the 35 full-backs in the Premier Soccer League, on 5 clean sheets and 2.141 defensive actions per 90.
We hold a single season for Sikhakhane, so there's no year-on-year comparison to draw yet — the read above is this campaign only.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 1, 34th of 35 of the 35 full-backs in the Premier Soccer League. At 33 Sikhakhane is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 0 reflects that trajectory.
Output in context · Richards Bay finished 11th of 16 · a lower-table side
2.14 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 5 clean sheets across 13 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (11th of 16) is harder than the bare numbers suggest: a back line under more pressure has to defend more often and protects fewer leads, so the volume — and any clean sheets — carry real weight.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 42% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
- Age curve. At 33, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
With a Rating of 0.5, Sikhakhane carries the 34th-highest potential of the full-backs in the Premier Soccer League of 35 — though on just 13 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.14 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.7× and falling).
