Outlook

With a Rating of 38.4, Smith carries the 8th-highest potential of the central midfielders in the Super League of 17 — though on just 18 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (3.09 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). At 19 the trajectory points up — potential sits near its ceiling (99/100) and market value should climb as minutes and output follow.
