Outlook

With a Rating of 31.6, Cummins carries the 2nd-highest potential of the central midfielders in the League Two of 48 — though on just 11 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.46 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). At 21 the trajectory points up — potential sits near its ceiling (97/100) and market value should climb as minutes and output follow.
