1 goal in 21 appearances (0.05 per game) — light end product the role wants to see climb.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 18.7% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Output. 0.18 contributions per 90 is light for an attacking role — end product needs to climb.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

Rated 33.8 overall — below regular-starter level. In the final third he profiles as a work-in-progress on end product (0.18 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.
