Goals / app

5 goals in 27 appearances (0.19 per game), a meaningful share of the load for a lower-table side. Add 1 assist for 6 goal contributions in all.

Strengths

  • Availability. On the pitch for 75% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.

Watch points

  • Output. 0.27 contributions per 90 is light for an attacking role — end product needs to climb.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

Rated 28.6 overall — below regular-starter level. In the final third he profiles as a work-in-progress on end product (0.27 goal contributions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.1× now → 0.8× projected in three years).
