Goals / app

4 goals in 14 appearances (0.29 per game) — light end product the role wants to see climb. He also laid on 3 assists, so the all-round involvement reads 7 goal contributions (0.5 per appearance).

Strengths

  • Final-third output. 0.59 goal contributions per 90 (0.34 goals, 0.25 assists) — productive for the role.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 38.4% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Age curve. At 31, 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 15.9, Cicerone carries the 42nd-highest potential of the centre-forwards in the USL Championship of 46 — though on just 14 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. In the final third he profiles as a genuine goal threat (0.59 goal contributions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.9× and falling).
