B. Pointon is a 22-year-old centre-forward at Bradford, rated 47.5 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 16th of 213 on scout potential in the League One and 428th of 1757 U-23 players tracked. An emerging talent, he has been a fringe squad member this season (33.7% of available minutes). He brings 0.39 goal contributions per 90 (0.26 goals, 0.13 assists). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Pointon.

Judged on this season alone, Pointon graded 15 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 24th of 28 of the 28 centre-forwards in the League One, on 2 goals and 1 assist in 10 appearances (0.387 involvements per 90).

Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 29 → 15). Over the 4 seasons on record his form has held fairly steady, peaking in 2025/26.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 48, top 4% of the 28 centre-forwards in the League One. At 22 Pointon is still climbing toward his ceiling, and a market index of 10.1 reflects that trajectory.

2 goals in 10 appearances (0.2 per game) — light end product the role wants to see climb. Add 1 assist for 3 goal contributions in all.

Strengths

  • Final-third output. 0.39 goal contributions per 90 (0.26 goals, 0.13 assists) — productive for the role.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 33.7% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.

Outlook

With a Rating of 47.5, Pointon carries the 1st-highest potential of the centre-forwards in the League One of 28 — though on just 10 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. In the final third he profiles as a productive contributor (0.39 goal contributions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 1.9×) with the best seasons likely ahead.
