Each attribute, out of 99: how he compares with the 360 outfield players in Premier League with ten full games or more, over 2025/26, marked down when he's below par among forwards (so playing up front alone doesn't make a shooter); passing against other forwards only, since where you play decides how safe your passes are. Rating is Sportmonks’ match rating, averaged. League matches only.
League matches in the competitions we cover, from Sportmonks. Per 90 shown from five full games. Cups, Europe and internationals aren’t included.
