Scout report
M. Edwards is a 27-year-old attacking midfielder at Burnley, rated 57.5 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 276th of 376 on scout potential in the Premier League. In his prime years, he has been a fringe squad member this season (31.4% of available minutes). He brings 0.34 goal contributions per 90 (0.08 goals, 0.25 assists). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Edwards.
Judged on this season alone, Edwards graded 14 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 60th of 73 of the 73 attacking midfielders in the Premier League, on 1 goal and 3 assists in 23 appearances (0.336 involvements per 90).
Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 7 → 14). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2021/22.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 58, 59th of 73 of the 73 attacking midfielders in the Premier League. At 27 Edwards is in his prime years, and a market index of 69 reflects that trajectory.
Past his 2021/22 peak — the recent trend is downward, so buyers are paying for what's left, not what was.
Output in context · Burnley finished 19th of 20 · a relegation-threatened side
1 goal in 23 appearances (0.04 per game) — light end product the role wants to see climb. He also laid on 3 assists, so the all-round involvement reads 4 goal contributions (0.17 per appearance).
Strengths
- Pedigree. Performing in a top-tier setting (team strength 90.5/100).
Watch points
- Game time. Only 31.4% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
Outlook
With a Rating of 57.5, Edwards carries the 59th-highest potential of the attacking midfielders in the Premier League of 73, and he is posting that for a relegation-threatened side (Burnley finished 19th of 20) — 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 work-in-progress on end product (0.34 goal contributions per 90). In the prime window — at or near peak market value, so the next two seasons are the ones to cash in or build around. Doing it for a lesser side, he profiles as a value buy for a club higher up the table.
