9 goals in 22 appearances (0.41 per game) for a title-challenging side. He also laid on 4 assists, so the all-round involvement reads 13 goal contributions (0.59 per appearance).

Strengths

  • Final-third output. 0.71 goal contributions per 90 (0.49 goals, 0.22 assists) — productive for the role.
  • Pedigree. Performing in a top-tier setting (team strength 93/100).

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 48.2% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Age curve. At 32, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

Rated 35.1 overall — developing / rotation level. In the final third he profiles as a genuine goal threat (0.71 goal contributions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.8× and falling).
