Scouting Report & Player Insights

A tall, physical defender who operates comfortably as a centre-back or as a left-sided option. His primary strengths are aerial dominance, strength in duels and a steady, low-risk approach on the ball. Not a natural dribbler or pace merchant, he contributes through positioning, work-rate and reliability.

Unusually tall for a player occasionally used on the flank, his height changes how opponents approach wide areas and set pieces.

Valued for versatility—able to slot into different defensive roles while offering consistent aerial threat and defensive assurance.
