P. Obah is a 22-year-old winger at LNZ Cherkasy, rated 39.5 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 16th of 157 on scout potential in the Premier League and 1003rd of 1772 U-23 players tracked. An emerging talent, he has been a fringe squad member this season (24% of available minutes). He brings 0.7 goal contributions per 90 (0.42 goals, 0.28 assists). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Obah.

3 goals in 10 appearances (0.3 per game) — light end product the role wants to see climb. Add 2 assists for 5 goal contributions in all.

Strengths

  • Final-third output. 0.7 goal contributions per 90 (0.42 goals, 0.28 assists) — productive for the role.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 24% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 39.5, Obah carries the 4th-highest potential of the wingers in the Premier League of 10 — though on just 10 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. In the final third he profiles as a genuine goal threat (0.7 goal contributions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 1.9×) with the best seasons likely ahead.
