Long-striding forward who covers ground well in the channels when fit. (conf 0.4)
Tall frame limits sharp turns, and repeated knee surgery weighs on his movement. (conf 0.35)
Broken seasons and long rehabilitation limit the repeat-sprint base he has shown. (conf 0.35)
Control

Uses his 1.89m frame to hold the ball up with his back to goal. (conf 0.4)

Distribution
Simple link play rather than incisive combinations. (conf 0.35)

Reasonably calm in front of goal, though lacks recent rhythm. (conf 0.35)
Adequate choices in the final third with room for sharper decisions. (conf 0.35)
