About Kenji-Van Boto
Kenji-Van Boto is a defensive left-back whose current form shows significant challenges, reflected in his bottom 9% Sofascore rating among peers.

Additionally, his injury history raises concerns about durability, having missed 26 games over the last three seasons. This combination of factors suggests he is currently not performing at the level expected for a starting defender.
