7 goals in 33 appearances (0.21 per game), a meaningful share of the load for a relegation-threatened side. He also laid on 3 assists, so the all-round involvement reads 10 goal contributions (0.3 per appearance).

Strengths

  • Availability. On the pitch for 80.5% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
  • Ceiling. High potential at just 22 — room to grow into a bigger role.

Watch points

  • Few red flags. No obvious weaknesses in the current-season profile — consistency is the next test.

Outlook

Rated 57.2 overall — a solid contributor and squad regular. In the final third he profiles as a work-in-progress on end product (0.35 goal contributions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 1.9×) with the best seasons likely ahead. With this floor already at 22, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.
