0 goals in 11 appearances (0 per game) — light end product the role wants to see climb. Add 1 assist for 1 goal contributions in all.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 23.6% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Output. 0.18 contributions per 90 is light for an attacking role — end product needs to climb.

Outlook

Rated 58.5 overall — a strong, regular top-tier starter. In the final third he profiles as a work-in-progress on end product (0.18 goal contributions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead. With this floor already at 23, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.
