Goals / app

3 goals in 25 appearances (0.12 per game) — light end product the role wants to see climb.

Strengths

  • Defensive volume. 4.95 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.
  • Pedigree. Performing in a top-tier setting (team strength 89.4/100).
  • Ceiling. High potential at just 21 — room to grow into a bigger role.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 43.4% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Output. 0.2 contributions per 90 is light for an attacking role — end product needs to climb.

Outlook

Rated 78.7 overall — elite — among the best in the position. In the final third he profiles as a work-in-progress on end product (0.2 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.
