On long-term scout potential he's rated 11.4, ranking 465th of 481 in the League One. A seasoned veteran, he has been a rotation option (38.1% of available minutes).

Judged on this season alone, Magennis graded 20 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 37th of 60 of the 60 centre-forwards in the League One, on 7 goals and 1 assist in 37 appearances (0.456 involvements per 90).
Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 25 → 20). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2020/21.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 11, 55th of 60 of the 60 centre-forwards in the League One. At 35 Magennis is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 1.3 reflects that trajectory.
Below his 2020/21 peak but holding a solid level — the platform for a return is there.
Output in context · Exeter City finished 21st of 24 · a lower-table side
7 goals in 37 appearances (0.19 per game), a meaningful share of the load for a lower-table side. Add 1 assist for 8 goal contributions in all.
Strengths
- Final-third output. 0.46 goal contributions per 90 (0.4 goals, 0.06 assists) — productive for the role.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 38.1% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
- Age curve. At 35, 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 11.4, Magennis carries the 55th-highest potential of the centre-forwards in the League One of 60, and he is posting that for a lower-table side (Exeter City 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 (0.46 goal contributions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.6× and falling).
