Scout report
L. Dykes is a 30-year-old centre-forward at Charlton, rated 36.8 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 402nd of 493 on scout potential in the Championship. An experienced operator, he has been a rotation option this season (54% of available minutes). He brings 0.36 goal contributions per 90 (0.23 goals, 0.14 assists). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Dykes.
Judged on this season alone, Dykes graded 25 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 35th of 66 of the 66 centre-forwards in the Championship, on 5 goals and 3 assists in 41 appearances (0.362 involvements per 90).
Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 4 → 25). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2020/21.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 37, 56th of 66 of the 66 centre-forwards in the Championship. At 30 Dykes is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 9.7 reflects that trajectory.
Below his 2020/21 peak but holding a solid level — the platform for a return is there.
Output in context · Charlton finished 19th of 24 · a lower-table side
5 goals in 41 appearances (0.12 per game), a meaningful share of the load for a lower-table side. He also laid on 3 assists, so the all-round involvement reads 8 goal contributions (0.2 per appearance).
Strengths
- Final-third output. 0.36 goal contributions per 90 (0.23 goals, 0.14 assists) — productive for the role.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 54% 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 36.8, Dykes carries the 56th-highest potential of the centre-forwards in the Championship of 66, and he is posting that for a lower-table side (Charlton finished 19th 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 (0.36 goal contributions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1× now → 0.7× projected in three years).
