2 goals in 22 appearances (0.09 per game) — light end product the role wants to see climb. Add 2 assists for 4 goal contributions in all.

Strengths

  • Final-third output. 0.47 goal contributions per 90 (0.24 goals, 0.24 assists) — productive for the role.
  • Ceiling. High potential at just 19 — room to grow into a bigger role.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 25% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.

Outlook

With a Rating of 51.1, Guga carries the 4th-highest potential of the centre-forwards in the Pro League of 13 — though on just 22 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. In the final third he profiles as a productive contributor (0.47 goal contributions per 90). At 19 the trajectory points up — potential sits near its ceiling (99/100) and market value should climb as minutes and output follow. With this floor already at 19, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.
