Clean sheets

4.53 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 2 clean sheets across 6 appearances. Behind a title-challenging side (2nd of 20) 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

  • Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.6 goal involvements per 90, useful for a defensive midfielder.
  • Creativity. 0.3 assists per 90 — a genuine creative outlet.
  • Defensive volume. 4.53 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 8.7% 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 33.5 overall — below regular-starter level. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (4.53 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90), with a bit more on the ball than most in the role. Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.2× now → 0.9× projected in three years).
