Aaron Buchanan Hickey
Central · Brentford · season-by-season, by competition, and every match.
Past his 2021/22 peak — the recent trend is downward, so buyers are paying for what's left, not what was.
The record covers 5 seasons (2020/21–2025/26) across 2 clubs, including a move abroad — 105 appearances with 7 goal contributions from defence.
His best campaign on record is 2021/22 at Bologna — Season rating 46, 5 goals and 1 assist in 36 games. 2021/22 was the leap — Season rating up 40 points at Bologna. Form has slipped 23 Season points across his last 3 full seasons. The gap to his peak is 38 Season points.
2025/26 was disrupted — 5 fixtures missed through injury or absence. A streaky profile — form has swung hard between campaigns (spread of ±16 points), so the peak and the trough are far apart.
