Scouting Report
✦ Analyst's Take
Defensive Anchor Off the Bench

Across 22 appearances as a replacement, Calles has built a profile defined almost entirely by his defensive output, averaging over four tackles per game and peaking at 11 in a single outing. His carrying numbers are modest — a couple of touches and minimal metres gained per match — which points to a role centred on maintaining defensive structure rather than generating attacking momentum. When the minutes stack up, it is his reliability at the tackle line that stands out most consistently.
