Clean sheets

3.66 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 12 clean sheets across 30 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (6th 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. Going forward he chipped in 0 goals and 7 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Availability. On the pitch for 80.4% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
  • Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.26 goal involvements per 90, useful for a defensive midfielder.
  • Defensive volume. 3.66 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 59.4, Leoni carries the 6th-highest potential of the defensive midfielders in the Ligue 2 (top 22%). Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (3.66 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90), with a bit more on the ball than most in the role. In the prime window — at or near peak market value, so the next two seasons are the ones to cash in or build around.
