Goals / app

4 goals in 37 appearances (0.11 per game) — light end product the role wants to see climb. He also laid on 5 assists, so the all-round involvement reads 9 goal contributions (0.24 per appearance).

Strengths

  • Availability. On the pitch for 72.4% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
  • Pedigree. Performing in a top-tier setting (team strength 93.2/100).

Watch points

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

Outlook

With a Rating of 82.6, Aaronson carries the 11th-highest potential of the centre-forwards in the Premier League (top 25%), and he is posting that for a lower-table side (Leeds finished 14th of 20) — individual numbers are harder to earn on a struggling team, so his underlying level likely sits a touch above the ranking. In the final third he profiles as a work-in-progress on end product (0.33 goal contributions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead. Doing it for a lesser side, he profiles as a value buy for a club higher up the table.
