4 goals in 22 appearances (0.18 per game) — light end product the role wants to see climb. He also laid on 3 assists, so the all-round involvement reads 7 goal contributions (0.32 per appearance).

Strengths

  • Availability. On the pitch for 68.8% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
  • Defensive volume. 4.02 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

  • Age curve. At 31, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

Rated 19.1 overall — below regular-starter level. In the final third he profiles as a work-in-progress on end product (0.34 goal contributions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.9× and falling).
