Two Nottingham Forest defenders sit in top three in Premier League list

For Murillo, it’s been quite a ride during the 2023/24 campaign and he’s been ever-present in the Premier League since making his debut in October.

Boly has been a bit of a strange one again and he’s often battled injury problems – although he has made 16 appearances in all competitions.

The pair have now been named at one and three in the list of Premier League defenders when it comes to the number of blocks and clearances per 90 minutes.

Boly is top with 7.12 per game, making 14 blocks and 65 clearances from 999 minutes on the pitch.
