- Ceiling. High potential at just 21 — room to grow into a bigger role.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 46.8% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
Outlook
Rated 64.3 overall — a strong, regular top-tier starter. In the final third he profiles as a productive contributor (0.44 goal contributions per 90). At 21 the trajectory points up — potential sits near its ceiling (97/100) and market value should climb as minutes and output follow. With this floor already at 21, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.
