6 goals in 22 appearances (0.27 per game) for an upper-table side.

Strengths

  • Final-third output. 0.35 goal contributions per 90 (0.35 goals, 0 assists) — productive for the role.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 44.6% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Age curve. At 38, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

Rated 12.5 overall — below regular-starter level. In the final third he profiles as a productive contributor (0.35 goal contributions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.5× and falling).
