Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Kelly.
Judged on this season alone, Kelly graded 20 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 33rd of 73 of the 73 attacking midfielders in the League One, on 2 goals and 6 assists in 40 appearances (0.248 involvements per 90).
Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 13 → 20).
On long-term talent our Rating reads 49, top 13% of the 73 attacking midfielders in the League One. At 21 Kelly is still climbing toward his ceiling, and a market index of 27.6 reflects that trajectory.
A career still climbing — Kelly is at his peak right now, and the curve hasn't flattened.
2 goals in 40 appearances (0.05 per game) — light end product the role wants to see climb. He also laid on 6 assists, so the all-round involvement reads 8 goal contributions (0.2 per appearance).
With a Rating of 49.4, Kelly carries the 9th-highest potential of the attacking midfielders in the League One (top 13%). In the final third he profiles as a work-in-progress on end product (0.25 goal contributions per 90). At 21 the trajectory points up — potential sits near its ceiling (97/100) and market value should climb as minutes and output follow. With this floor already at 21, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.

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 (~31), then tapers with age. At 21, Kelly sits on 27.6, still climbing toward its peak. The blue line is Kelly's projected Rating — 49.4 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.
