In his prime years, he has been a fringe squad member this season (19.1% of available minutes). He brings 0.43 goal contributions per 90 (0.21 goals, 0.21 assists). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on McAtee.
Judged on this season alone, McAtee graded 9 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 31st of 31 of the 31 attacking midfielders in the League One, on 2 goals and 2 assists in 26 appearances (0.428 involvements per 90).
Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 34 → 9). Over the 5 seasons on record his form has held fairly steady, peaking in 2023/24.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 35, 25th of 31 of the 31 attacking midfielders in the League One. At 27 McAtee is in his prime years, and a market index of 7.8 reflects that trajectory.
Past his 2023/24 peak — the recent trend is downward, so buyers are paying for what's left, not what was.

Strengths
- Final-third output. 0.43 goal contributions per 90 (0.21 goals, 0.21 assists) — productive for the role.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 19.1% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
With a Rating of 35, McAtee carries the 25th-highest potential of the attacking midfielders in the League One of 31 — though on just 26 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. In the final third he profiles as a productive contributor (0.43 goal contributions per 90). In the prime window — at or near peak market value, so the next two seasons are the ones to cash in or build around.
