5 goals in 9 appearances (0.56 per game) for an upper-table side.

Strengths

  • Final-third output. 0.71 goal contributions per 90 (0.71 goals, 0 assists) — productive for the role.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 23.4% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

Rated 35.3 overall — developing / rotation level. In the final third he profiles as a genuine goal threat (0.71 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.
