On long-term talent our Rating reads 40, 29th of 53 of the 53 central midfielders in the Championship. At 29 Ahearne-Grant is in his prime years, and a market index of 10.1 reflects that trajectory.
Below his 2021/22 peak but holding a solid level — the platform for a return is there.
Output in context · Charlton finished 17th of 24 · a lower-table side
1.02 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume, with 3 clean sheets across 11 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (17th of 24) is harder than the bare numbers suggest: a back line under more pressure has to defend more often and protects fewer leads, so the volume — and any clean sheets — carry real weight. Going forward he chipped in 2 goals and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.31 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central midfielder.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 42.4% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
- Defensive numbers. Modest 1.02 defensive actions per 90 for the position.
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
With a Rating of 39.8, Ahearne-Grant carries the 29th-highest potential of the central midfielders in the Championship of 53 — though on just 11 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as light defensive volume (1.02 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.1× now → 0.8× projected in three years).
