Maybe the simplest answer is the right answer. Maybe he's just a human with some degree of spiritual perception and spiritual power. But nothing more than that.

He's definitely not a shinigami or a hollow, so that's out the window.

Him being a Quincy is highly doubtful, because Yhwach would've either recruited him or killed him.

Him being a Fullbringer... Possible. But also highly doubtful. Unless he really sucks at it.

So he's most likely just a slightly more than regular guy, that has some spiritual power. After all I can't believe that every choice in the Bleach universe consists on becoming a Quincy, Shinigami, Hollow, or something in between. And I can think of other examples. Think about Ichigo friends, Tatsuki, Keigo and Mizuiro. They all now have some sort of spiritual perception and power, but they don't belong to any of the three most spiritual powerful races we've seen in the manga.
