2 goals in 34 appearances (0.06 per game) — light end product the role wants to see climb. Add 1 assist for 3 goal contributions in all.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 55.3% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Output. 0.14 contributions per 90 is light for an attacking role — end product needs to climb.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 42.3, King carries the 19th-highest potential of the attacking midfielders in the Premiership of 40, and he is posting that for a relegation-threatened side (ST Mirren finished 10th of 12) — individual numbers are harder to earn on a struggling team, so his underlying level likely sits a touch above the ranking. In the final third he profiles as a work-in-progress on end product (0.14 goal contributions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead.
