Watch points

  • Game time. Only 25.3% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.

Outlook

Rated 62.5 overall — a strong, regular top-tier starter. In the final third he profiles as a work-in-progress on end product (0.34 goal contributions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead. With this floor already at 23, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.
