Strengths

  • Availability. On the pitch for 67.7% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
  • Final-third output. 0.6 goal contributions per 90 (0.56 goals, 0.04 assists) — productive for the role.
  • Pedigree. Performing in a top-tier setting (team strength 100/100).

Watch points

  • Few red flags. No obvious weaknesses in the current-season profile — consistency is the next test.

Outlook

With a Rating of 69.4, Gyökeres carries the 26th-highest potential of the centre-forwards in the Premier League of 44. In the final third he profiles as a genuine goal threat (0.6 goal contributions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.2× now → 0.9× projected in three years).
