Strengths

  • Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.37 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central midfielder.
  • Creativity. 0.37 assists per 90 — a genuine creative outlet.
  • Pedigree. Performing in a top-tier setting (team strength 95.3/100).
  • Ceiling. High potential at just 18 — room to grow into a bigger role.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 14.4% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.

Outlook

Rated 82.57400000000001 overall — elite — among the best in the position. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.93 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90), with a bit more on the ball than most in the role. At 18 the trajectory points up — potential sits near its ceiling (100/100) and market value should climb as minutes and output follow. With this floor already at 18, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.
