Scout report

Experienced headCentre-forward

C. Jennings is a 34-year-old centre-forward at Tranmere, enjoying a standout season — 4 goals and 3 assists in 28 appearances, a Season grade of 14, top 51% of League Two centre-forwards. On long-term scout potential he's rated 7.3, ranking 456th of 478 in the League Two. A seasoned veteran, he has been a fringe squad member (31.2% of available minutes). He brings 0.49 goal contributions per 90 (0.28 goals, 0.21 assists). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Jennings.

Judged on this season alone, Jennings graded 14 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 36th of 70 of the 70 centre-forwards in the League Two, on 4 goals and 3 assists in 28 appearances (0.488 involvements per 90).

Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 18 → 14). Over the 4 seasons on record his form has held fairly steady, peaking in 2023/24.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 7, 61st of 70 of the 70 centre-forwards in the League Two. At 34 Jennings is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 0.4 reflects that trajectory.

Goals / app

4 goals in 28 appearances (0.14 per game) — light end product the role wants to see climb. He also laid on 3 assists, so the all-round involvement reads 7 goal contributions (0.25 per appearance).

Strengths

  • Final-third output. 0.49 goal contributions per 90 (0.28 goals, 0.21 assists) — productive for the role.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 31.2% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Age curve. At 34, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 7.3, Jennings carries the 61st-highest potential of the centre-forwards in the League Two of 70, and he is posting that for a lower-table side (Tranmere finished 21st of 24) — 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 productive contributor (0.49 goal contributions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.6× and falling).
