Strengths

  • Availability. On the pitch for 77.2% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
  • Final-third output. 0.62 goal contributions per 90 (0.31 goals, 0.31 assists) — productive for the role.

Watch points

  • Defensive numbers. Modest 1.09 defensive actions per 90 for the position.
  • Age curve. At 37, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 12.1, Reus carries the 36th-highest potential of the attacking midfielders in the Major League Soccer of 39. In the final third he profiles as a genuine goal threat (0.62 goal contributions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.5× and falling).
