0 goals in 1 appearance (0 per game) — light end product the role wants to see climb. Add 1 assist for 1 goal contributions in all.

Strengths

  • Final-third output. 2 goal contributions per 90 (0 goals, 2 assists) — productive for the role.
  • Defensive volume. 4 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 2.6% 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 21 overall — below regular-starter level. In the final third he profiles as a genuine goal threat (2 goal contributions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1× now → 0.7× projected in three years).
