0 goals in 6 appearances (0 per game) — light end product the role wants to see climb. Add 1 assist for 1 goal contributions in all.

Strengths

  • Final-third output. 1.48 goal contributions per 90 (0 goals, 1.48 assists) — productive for the role.
  • Defensive volume. 4.43 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 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 28.1 overall — below regular-starter level. In the final third he profiles as a genuine goal threat (1.48 goal contributions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.1× now → 0.8× projected in three years).
