Watch points

  • Game time. Only 49.3% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Output. 0.22 contributions per 90 is light for an attacking role — end product needs to climb.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

Rated 27.9 overall — below regular-starter level. In the final third he profiles as a work-in-progress on end product (0.22 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.
