9 goals in 28 appearances (0.32 per game), a meaningful share of the load for a lower-table side. Add 1 assist for 10 goal contributions in all.

Strengths

  • Availability. On the pitch for 63.6% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
  • Final-third output. 0.41 goal contributions per 90 (0.37 goals, 0.04 assists) — productive for the role.
  • Pedigree. Performing in a top-tier setting (team strength 92.6/100).

Watch points

  • Few red flags. No obvious weaknesses in the current-season profile — consistency is the next test.

Outlook

Rated 60.9 overall — a strong, regular top-tier starter. In the final third he profiles as a productive contributor (0.41 goal contributions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.2× now → 0.9× projected in three years). Doing it for a lesser side, he profiles as a value buy for a club higher up the table.
