Judged on this season alone, Madden graded 18 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 34th of 60 of the 60 attacking midfielders in the League Two, on 6 goals and 1 assist in 33 appearances (0.298 involvements per 90).
Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 12 → 18). Over the 5 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2023/24.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 9, 57th of 60 of the 60 attacking midfielders in the League Two. At 36 Madden is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 0.5 reflects that trajectory.
Past his 2023/24 peak — the recent trend is downward, so buyers are paying for what's left, not what was.

Watch points
- Game time. Only 51.1% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
- Output. 0.3 contributions per 90 is light for an attacking role — end product needs to climb.
- Defensive numbers. Modest 0.85 defensive actions per 90 for the position.
- Age curve. At 36, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
With a Rating of 9.3, Madden carries the 57th-highest potential of the attacking midfielders in the League Two of 60. In the final third he profiles as a work-in-progress on end product (0.3 goal contributions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.6× and falling).
