Scout report

Squad depthGoal-getting Centre-forward

R. Brewster is a 26-year-old centre-forward at Derby, rated 59.6 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 221st of 493 on scout potential in the Championship. In his prime years, he has been a rotation option this season (40.8% of available minutes). He brings 0.55 goal contributions per 90 (0.43 goals, 0.12 assists). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Brewster.

Judged on this season alone, Brewster graded 27 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 28th of 66 of the 66 centre-forwards in the Championship, on 7 goals and 2 assists in 29 appearances (0.551 involvements per 90).

Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 18 → 27). Across the 6 seasons we hold, it's his best return yet.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 60, 32nd of 66 of the 66 centre-forwards in the Championship. At 26 Brewster is in his prime years, and a market index of 27.5 reflects that trajectory.

Read the appearance count in context: Brewster missed 6 games through injury (injury, knee, fitness) out of roughly 46 this season. The 29 he did play is a solid return on the time he was fit, and his ratings are weighted toward those games rather than the ones he sat out injured.

  • Final-third output. 0.55 goal contributions per 90 (0.43 goals, 0.12 assists) — productive for the role.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 40.8% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.

In the final third he profiles as a genuine goal threat (0.55 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.
