8 goals in 7 appearances (1.14 per game) for an upper-table side.

Strengths

  • Final-third output. 1.4 goal contributions per 90 (1.4 goals, 0 assists) — productive for the role.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 24.9% 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 17.5 overall — below regular-starter level. In the final third he profiles as a genuine goal threat (1.4 goal contributions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.8× and falling).
