3 goals in 7 appearances (0.43 per game) — light end product the role wants to see climb.

Strengths

  • Final-third output. 0.57 goal contributions per 90 (0.57 goals, 0 assists) — productive for the role.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 27.5% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

Rated 31.5 overall — below regular-starter level. In the final third he profiles as a genuine goal threat (0.57 goal contributions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.1× now → 0.8× projected in three years).
