2 goals in 30 appearances (0.07 per game) — light end product the role wants to see climb. Add 2 assists for 4 goal contributions in all.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 50.7% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Output. 0.21 contributions per 90 is light for an attacking role — end product needs to climb.
  • Defensive numbers. Modest 1.87 defensive actions per 90 for the position.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

Rated 32.6 overall — below regular-starter level. In the final third he profiles as a work-in-progress on end product (0.21 goal contributions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.2× now → 0.9× projected in three years).
