In his prime years, he has been a regular starter this season (63.2% of available minutes). He brings 0.53 goal contributions per 90 (0.35 goals, 0.18 assists). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Sargent.

Judged on this season alone, Sargent graded 33 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 32nd of 45 of the 45 centre-forwards in the Major League Soccer, on 4 goals and 2 assists in 14 appearances (0.527 involvements per 90).

Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 27 → 33). Over the 7 seasons on record his form has held fairly steady, peaking in 2024/25.

4 goals in 14 appearances (0.29 per game) — light end product the role wants to see climb. Add 2 assists for 6 goal contributions in all.

Strengths

  • Availability. On the pitch for 63.2% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
  • Final-third output. 0.53 goal contributions per 90 (0.35 goals, 0.18 assists) — productive for the role.

Watch points

  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 39.5, Sargent carries the 25th-highest potential of the centre-forwards in the Major League Soccer of 45 — though on just 14 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. In the final third he profiles as a productive contributor (0.53 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.
