On long-term talent our Rating reads 14, 53rd of 60 of the 60 centre-forwards in the League One. At 36 Wells is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 2.7 reflects that trajectory.
Below his 2022/23 peak but holding a solid level — the platform for a return is there.
5 goals in 39 appearances (0.13 per game) for an upper-table side. He also laid on 3 assists, so the all-round involvement reads 8 goal contributions (0.21 per appearance).
With a Rating of 14.4, Wells carries the 53rd-highest potential of the centre-forwards in the League One of 60. In the final third he profiles as a work-in-progress on end product (0.33 goal contributions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.6× and falling).

The gold line is market value — an index (not €) blending rating, age and league. It climbs through the early 20s, peaks around ages 23–27 (~9), then tapers with age. At 36, Wells sits on 2.7, past its peak and easing. The blue line is Wells's projected Rating — 14.4 today — recomputed at each age, so it follows the same rise-and-fall as a career matures and declines. Solid = up to today; dashed = projected.
