7 goals in 33 appearances (0.21 per game), a meaningful share of the load for a lower-table side. Add 1 assist for 8 goal contributions in all.

Strengths

  • Final-third output. 0.47 goal contributions per 90 (0.41 goals, 0.06 assists) — productive for the role.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 37.4% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.

Outlook

With a Rating of 61.4, Kelman carries the 9th-highest potential of the centre-forwards in the Championship of 16, and he is posting that for a lower-table side (Charlton finished 19th of 24) — individual numbers are harder to earn on a struggling team, so his underlying level likely sits a touch above the ranking. In the final third he profiles as a productive contributor (0.47 goal contributions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead. Doing it for a lesser side, he profiles as a value buy for a club higher up the table.
