1 goal in 5 appearances (0.2 per game) — light end product the role wants to see climb.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 15.8% 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 27.9 overall — below regular-starter level. In the final third he profiles as a work-in-progress on end product (0.33 goal contributions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.1× now → 0.8× projected in three years).
