## Profile

### Near-term role: short cameos, measured returns

## Profile
Twenty-year-old Scotland-born attacker currently on Livingston’s books, framed as a forward option off the bench rather than a starter[^fact-1]. The profile suggests a young player being eased into senior minutes while the club evaluates impact per minute[^fact-1].

## Season form
Game time is minimal: 2 appearances and 27 minutes on the pitch so far this season[^fact-2]. Output in that tiny sample is limited — the last five matches show a combined 0.10 expected goals (xG) figure[^fact-4], and there have been 0 goals and 0 assists across the most recent two appearances, which together total the 27 minutes recorded[^fact-5][^fact-2]. Provider data places the season average rating at 6.90, a single-season summary number that aligns with the low-usage scenario and neutral match contributions to date[^fact-3].

## Availability & momentum
Availability appears intact for selection given the recorded minutes, with no recorded absences or injury notes in the supplied facts; the most recent outing came in a 1–4 loss at Kilmarnock, where the player recorded 0 goals, 0 assists and a rating of 6.90[^fact-6][^fact-3]. Momentum is therefore limited by opportunity: statistical momentum (goals/assists) is non-existent in the examined sequence, and the small minutes sample prevents meaningful trend projection[^fact-5][^fact-2].

## What to watch
The immediate signal to monitor is role clarity: whether the coaching staff increases minutes beyond brief cameos, because any per-90 metrics or attacking returns will hinge almost entirely on a change in volume rather than a sudden spike in efficiency given current numbers[^fact-2][^fact-4]. Match-by-match cues to track are inclusion earlier in the second half or a first start, which would materially change the interpretive framework built on 27 minutes so far[^fact-2]. Also watch for any uptick in the small-sample xG path — the last five matches show 0.10 xG, so modest increases from that baseline would be the first signs of attacking involvement rising[^fact-4]. Finally, the next fixture provides the nearest practical test of whether those minute constraints loosen; the last recorded team result was the 1–4 defeat at Kilmarnock, where personal output was likewise nil[^fact-6][^fact-5].
