Scout report

Experienced headWinger

C. McAleny is a 34-year-old winger at Harrogate Town, enjoying a standout season — 3 goals and 0 assists in 21 appearances, a Season grade of 8, top 75% of League Two wingers. On long-term scout potential he's rated 6.1, ranking 130th of 134 in the League Two. A seasoned veteran, he has been a fringe squad member (20.4% of available minutes). He brings 0.32 goal contributions per 90 (0.32 goals, 0 assists). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on McAleny.

Judged on this season alone, McAleny graded 8 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 9th of 12 of the 12 wingers in the League Two, on 3 goals and 0 assists in 21 appearances (0.319 involvements per 90).

Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 7 → 8). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2020/21.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 6, 12th of 12 of the 12 wingers in the League Two. At 34 McAleny is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 0.3 reflects that trajectory.

3 goals in 21 appearances (0.14 per game) — light end product the role wants to see climb.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 20.4% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Age curve. At 34, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 6.1, McAleny carries the 12th-highest potential of the wingers in the League Two of 12 — though on just 21 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. In the final third he profiles as a work-in-progress on end product (0.32 goal contributions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.6× and falling).
