1 goal in 16 appearances (0.06 per game) — light end product the role wants to see climb. Add 1 assist for 2 goal contributions in all.

Strengths

  • Ceiling. High potential at just 21 — room to grow into a bigger role.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 18.1% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.

Outlook

Rated 66.3 overall — a strong, regular top-tier starter. In the final third he profiles as a work-in-progress on end product (0.32 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.
