0 goals in 2 appearances (0 per game) — light end product the role wants to see climb.

Strengths

  • Pedigree. Performing in a top-tier setting (team strength 92.6/100).
  • Ceiling. High potential at just 16 — room to grow into a bigger role.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 0.7% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Output. 0 contributions per 90 is light for an attacking role — end product needs to climb.

Outlook

Rated 69.6 overall — a strong, regular top-tier starter. In the final third he profiles as a work-in-progress on end product (0 goal contributions per 90). At 16 the trajectory points up — potential sits near its ceiling (100/100) and market value should climb as minutes and output follow. With this floor already at 16, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.
