Availability. On the pitch for 60.4% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.47 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central midfielder.

Watch points

Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 41.1, Paulet carries the 26th-highest potential of the central midfielders in the Challenger Pro League of 46 — though on just 0 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (3.67 tackles, blocks & interceptions 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.

Market valueRating

Solid = now · dashed = projected

The gold line is market value — an index (not €) blending rating, age and league. It climbs through the early 20s, peaks around ages 23–27 (~14), then tapers with age. At 26, Paulet sits on 13.8, at or near its peak. The blue line is Paulet's projected Rating — 41.1 today — recomputed at each age, so it follows the same rise-and-fall as a career matures and declines. Solid = up to today; dashed = projected.
