Strengths

  • Final-third output. 0.59 goal contributions per 90 (0 goals, 0.59 assists) — productive for the role.
  • Pedigree. Performing in a top-tier setting (team strength 95.8/100).

Outlook

Rated 60.9 overall — a strong, regular top-tier starter. In the final third he profiles as a genuine goal threat (0.59 goal contributions per 90). In the prime window — at or near peak market value, so the next two seasons are the ones to cash in or build around.
