B. Brobbey is a 24-year-old centre-forward at Sunderland, rated 86.3 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 57th of 376 on scout potential in the Premier League. An emerging talent, he has been a regular starter this season (65.5% of available minutes). He brings 0.37 goal contributions per 90 (0.32 goals, 0.05 assists). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Brobbey.

Judged on this season alone, Brobbey graded 36 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 20th of 44 of the 44 centre-forwards in the Premier League, on 7 goals and 1 assist in 31 appearances (0.37 involvements per 90).

Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 26 → 36). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has trended upward, peaking in 2023/24.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 86, top 16% of the 44 centre-forwards in the Premier League. At 24 Brobbey is in his prime years, and a market index of 103.6 reflects that trajectory.

Read the appearance count in context: Brobbey missed 5 games through injury (ankle, groin) out of roughly 38 this season. The 31 he did play is a solid return on the time he was fit, and his ratings are weighted toward those games rather than the ones he sat out injured.
