Strengths

Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.42 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central midfielder.
Defensive volume. 4.08 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.
Ceiling. High potential at just 18 — room to grow into a bigger role.

Watch points

Game time. Only 32.3% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.

Outlook

Rated 77.9 overall — elite — among the best in the position. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (4.08 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). At 18 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 18, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.

Value & potential by age

Market valueRating

Solid = now · dashed = projected

The gold line is market value — an index (not €) blending rating, age and league. It climbs through the early 20s, peaks around ages 23–27 (~45), then tapers with age. At 18, Gay sits on 34.1, still climbing toward its peak. The blue line is Gay's projected Rating — 77.9 today — recomputed at each age, so it follows the same rise-and-fall as a career matures and declines. Solid = up to today; dashed = projected.
