An emerging talent, he has been a regular starter this season (66% of available minutes). He brings 0.41 goal contributions per 90 (0.41 goals, 0 assists). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Coburn.

Judged on this season alone, Coburn graded 37 — a strong campaign that ranks top 19% of the 66 centre-forwards in the Championship, on 9 goals and 0 assists in 28 appearances (0.413 involvements per 90).

Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 15 → 37). Across the 6 seasons we hold, it's his best return yet.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 73, top 4% of the 66 centre-forwards in the Championship. At 23 Coburn is still climbing toward his ceiling, and a market index of 33.8 reflects that trajectory.

Read the appearance count in context: Coburn missed 15 games through injury (muscle, injury) out of roughly 48 this season. The 28 he did play is a solid return on the time he was fit, and his ratings are weighted toward those games rather than the ones he sat out injured.
