5 goals in 41 appearances (0.12 per game), a meaningful share of the load for a lower-table side. He also laid on 3 assists, so the all-round involvement reads 8 goal contributions (0.2 per appearance).

Strengths

  • Final-third output. 0.36 goal contributions per 90 (0.23 goals, 0.14 assists) — productive for the role.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 48.1% 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 35.7 overall — developing / rotation level. In the final third he profiles as a productive contributor (0.36 goal contributions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1× now → 0.7× projected in three years).
