Clean sheets

5.87 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — high defensive volume across 6 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (5th of 16) 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.

Strengths

  • Defensive volume. 5.87 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 6.8% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

Rated 37.3 overall — developing / rotation level. Defensively he reads as high defensive volume (5.87 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). At 18 the trajectory points up — potential sits near its ceiling (100/100) and market value should climb as minutes and output follow.
