Across six appearances as a replacement, Eite's output is defined almost entirely by his defensive work — averaging over six tackles per match and peaking at 15 in a single game, numbers that point to a consistent impact in the tight phases when he comes on. His carrying is used sparingly, suggesting his primary function is to shore up the defensive line rather than carry ball. The volume of tackles relative to his limited minutes on the field underlines how quickly he gets involved and how reliably he contributes in that area.
