Lejeune's 2026/27 season, read from the numbers
In 2026/27, F. Lejeune was used in rotation for Rayo Vallecano in the La Liga: 7 appearances and 630 minutes, averaging 90 minutes per outing. His standout number is match rating — 75th of 905 defenders and inside the top 8%.
Per 90 minutes that is 2.1 tackles per 90, 1.6 interceptions per 90 and 61% of his duels won — the rate profile behind Lejeune's totals. Lejeune played 362 passes at 84% accuracy — 51.7 per 90, which is the volume that decides whether a side builds through him or around him.
The profile is lopsided rather than complete: measured against defenders, Lejeune sits in the top 4% for tackling volume but only the top 31% for shot conversion. Set against Lejeune's own record, 2026/27 reads differently: he is playing far less than he once did — 630 minutes against 3326 at his peak; his average match rating has slipped from 7.08 to 6.40 since 2025/26.
