Output in context · Derby finished 8th of 24 · an upper-table side
3 goals in 14 appearances (0.21 per game) — light end product the role wants to see climb.
Strengths
- Final-third output. 0.47 goal contributions per 90 (0.47 goals, 0 assists) — productive for the role.
- Ceiling. High potential at just 21 — room to grow into a bigger role.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 13.8% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
Outlook
Rated 63.5 overall — a strong, regular top-tier starter. In the final third he profiles as a productive contributor (0.47 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.
