The backup forward raised his season tally to four assists across all competitions, though the last time he scored was in a Coppa Italia match during early December.

He set a new season high in shots, but his minutes are bound to dip because of the return of Marcus Thuram. He has had at least one attempt in five consecutive tilts, accumulating 16 (four on target) and tallying one goal, two assists and five chances created.
