  • Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.4 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central midfielder.

Outlook

Rated 52 overall — a solid contributor and squad regular. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.57 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead.
