Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 20 → 33). Over the 7 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2022/23.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 31, 20th of 22 of the 22 centre-forwards in the Championship. At 31 Larin is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 10.7 reflects that trajectory.

7 goals in 11 appearances (0.64 per game) for an upper-table side.

Strengths

  • Final-third output. 0.86 goal contributions per 90 (0.86 goals, 0 assists) — productive for the role.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 35.3% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Age curve. At 31, 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 31, Larin carries the 20th-highest potential of the centre-forwards in the Championship of 22 — though on just 11 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. In the final third he profiles as a genuine goal threat (0.86 goal contributions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.9× and falling).
