No league appearances recorded this season, so there's no output sample to read yet.

Strengths

  • Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 1 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central midfielder.
  • Creativity. 1 assists per 90 — a genuine creative outlet.
  • Defensive volume. 4 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 8.7% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Age curve. At 2025, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

Rated 3.4 overall — below regular-starter level. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (4 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90), with a bit more on the ball than most in the role. Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.5× and falling).
