Goals / app

8 goals in 28 appearances (0.29 per game) for a title-challenging side. Add 1 assist for 9 goal contributions in all.

Strengths

  • Final-third output. 0.69 goal contributions per 90 (0.62 goals, 0.08 assists) — productive for the role.
  • Ceiling. High potential at just 20 — room to grow into a bigger role.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 38.2% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.

Outlook

With a Rating of 65.7, William carries the 2nd-highest potential of the wingers in the Primeira Liga (top 9%). In the final third he profiles as a genuine goal threat (0.69 goal contributions per 90). At 20 the trajectory points up — potential sits near its ceiling (98/100) and market value should climb as minutes and output follow. With this floor already at 20, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.
