1 goal in 6 appearances (0.17 per game) — light end product the role wants to see climb.

Strengths

  • Final-third output. 0.35 goal contributions per 90 (0.35 goals, 0 assists) — productive for the role.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 7.5% 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 31.2 overall — below regular-starter level. In the final third he profiles as a productive contributor (0.35 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.
