An experienced operator, he has been a rotation option this season (36.3% of available minutes). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on McCowan.
Judged on this season alone, McCowan graded 8 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 31st of 40 of the 40 attacking midfielders in the Premiership, on 1 goal and 1 assist in 30 appearances (0.145 involvements per 90).
Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 29 → 8). Over the 4 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2023/24.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 31, 31st of 40 of the 40 attacking midfielders in the Premiership. At 28 McCowan is in his prime years, and a market index of 4.1 reflects that trajectory.
Past his 2023/24 peak — the recent trend is downward, so buyers are paying for what's left, not what was.
