9 goals in 36 appearances (0.25 per game) for a mid-table side. He also laid on 3 assists, so the all-round involvement reads 12 goal contributions (0.33 per appearance).

Strengths

  • Availability. On the pitch for 64.5% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
  • Final-third output. 0.49 goal contributions per 90 (0.37 goals, 0.12 assists) — productive for the role.
  • Pedigree. Performing in a top-tier setting (team strength 94.7/100).

Watch points

  • Age curve. At 35, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

Rated 27.9 overall — below regular-starter level. In the final third he profiles as a productive contributor (0.49 goal contributions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.6× and falling).
