Scout report
S. Lavery is a 27-year-old centre-forward at Cambridge United, rated 25.4 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 264th of 478 on scout potential in the League Two. In his prime years, he has been a fringe squad member this season (26% of available minutes). He brings 0.75 goal contributions per 90 (0.66 goals, 0.09 assists). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Lavery.
Judged on this season alone, Lavery graded 17 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 30th of 70 of the 70 centre-forwards in the League Two, on 7 goals and 1 assist in 30 appearances (0.749 involvements per 90).
Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 16 → 17). Over the 5 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2021/22.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 25, 31st of 70 of the 70 centre-forwards in the League Two. At 27 Lavery is in his prime years, and a market index of 3.1 reflects that trajectory.
Read the appearance count in context: Lavery missed 5 games through injury (hamstring) out of roughly 46 this season. The 30 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.
Below his 2021/22 peak but holding a solid level — the platform for a return is there.

Outlook
With a Rating of 25.4, Lavery carries the 31st-highest potential of the centre-forwards in the League Two of 70. In the final third he profiles as a genuine goal threat (0.75 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.
