Goals / app

5 goals in 5 appearances (1 per game), a meaningful share of the load for a relegation-threatened side.

Strengths

  • Final-third output. 1.28 goal contributions per 90 (1.28 goals, 0 assists) — productive for the role.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 55.9% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • 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

Rated 8.3 overall — below regular-starter level. In the final third he profiles as a genuine goal threat (1.28 goal contributions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.6× and falling).
