W. Keane is a 33-year-old centre-forward at Preston, rated 13.3 overall by Field Insider's model. A seasoned veteran, he has been a fringe squad member this season (1.2% of available minutes). He brings 3.75 goal contributions per 90 (3.75 goals, 0 assists). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Keane.
On the season, Keane graded 3 for current form (age-blind), on 1 goal and 0 assists in 2 appearances (3.75 involvements per 90).
Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 10 → 3). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2021/22.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 13. At 33 Keane is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 6 reflects that trajectory.
Read the appearance count in context: Keane missed 13 games through injury (muscle, injured) out of roughly 46 this season. The 2 he did play is a solid return on the time he was fit, and his ratings are weighted toward those games rather than the ones he sat out injured.
Past his 2021/22 peak — the recent trend is downward, so buyers are paying for what's left, not what was.
1 goal in 2 appearances (0.5 per game) — light end product the role wants to see climb.
Rated 13.3 overall — below regular-starter level. In the final third he profiles as a genuine goal threat (3.75 goal contributions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.7× and falling).

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 (~17), then tapers with age. At 33, Keane sits on 6, past its peak and easing. The blue line is Keane's projected Rating — 13.3 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.
