Goals / app

2 goals in 3 appearances (0.67 per game) — light end product the role wants to see climb.

Strengths

  • Final-third output. 0.68 goal contributions per 90 (0.68 goals, 0 assists) — productive for the role.
  • Ceiling. High potential at just 19 — room to grow into a bigger role.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 15.4% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.

Outlook

Rated 50.3 overall — a solid contributor and squad regular. In the final third he profiles as a genuine goal threat (0.68 goal contributions per 90). At 19 the trajectory points up — potential sits near its ceiling (99/100) and market value should climb as minutes and output follow. With this floor already at 19, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.
