Watch points

  • Game time. Only 42.6% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 19.6, Wyke carries the 38th-highest potential of the centre-backs in the USL Championship of 59 — though on just 14 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.58 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.1× now → 0.8× projected in three years).
