Goals / app

3 goals in 34 appearances (0.09 per game) — light end product the role wants to see climb. Add 1 assist for 4 goal contributions in all.

Strengths

  • Availability. On the pitch for 100% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.

Watch points

  • Output. 0.12 contributions per 90 is light for an attacking role — end product needs to climb.

Outlook

Rated 57 overall — a solid contributor and squad regular. In the final third he profiles as a work-in-progress on end product (0.12 goal contributions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.1× now → 0.8× projected in three years).
