William David Keane
Center Forward · Preston · season-by-season, by competition, and every match.
Past his 2021/22 peak — the recent trend is downward, so buyers are paying for what's left, not what was.
The record covers 6 seasons (2020/21–2025/26) across 3 clubs — 198 appearances, 66 goals and 16 assists.
His best campaign on record is 2021/22 at Wigan — Season rating 67, 26 goals and 7 assists in 44 games. 2021/22 was the leap — Season rating up 36 points at Wigan. Form has slipped 36 Season points across his last 3 full seasons. The gap to his peak is 62 Season points.
2025/26 was disrupted — 13 fixtures missed through injury or absence. A streaky profile — form has swung hard between campaigns (spread of ±21 points), so the peak and the trough are far apart. Made the jump to a higher division in 2022/23 (Championship) and kept playing — 43 games that season.
