1 goal in 14 appearances (0.07 per game) — light end product the role wants to see climb. He also laid on 4 assists, so the all-round involvement reads 5 goal contributions (0.36 per appearance).

Strengths

  • Availability. On the pitch for 74.8% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
  • Final-third output. 0.48 goal contributions per 90 (0.1 goals, 0.38 assists) — productive for the role.

Watch points

  • Few red flags. No obvious weaknesses in the current-season profile — consistency is the next test.

Outlook

With a Rating of 48.204, Ellis carries the 10th-highest potential of the wingers in the Major League Soccer of 46 — 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 (0.48 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.
