10 goals in 24 appearances (0.42 per game) — double figures playing for a mid-table side (8th of 16).

Strengths

  • Final-third output. 0.83 goal contributions per 90 (0.42 goals, 0.42 assists) — productive for the role.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 16% 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 20.8 overall — below regular-starter level. In the final third he profiles as a genuine goal threat (0.83 goal contributions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.2× now → 0.9× projected in three years).
