Output in context · Zulte Waregem finished 3rd of 6 · a mid-table side
1 goal in 6 appearances (0.17 per game) — light end product the role wants to see climb.
Strengths
- Final-third output. 1.22 goal contributions per 90 (1.22 goals, 0 assists) — productive for the role.
- Ceiling. High potential at just 22 — room to grow into a bigger role.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 4.6% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
Outlook
Rated 51.8 overall — a solid contributor and squad regular. In the final third he profiles as a genuine goal threat (1.22 goal contributions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 1.9×) with the best seasons likely ahead. With this floor already at 22, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.
