Where this sits
API-Football season rows. O'Hare, Championship 2025-26 for Sheffield United: 45 appearances, 41 starts, 3,468 minutes, 8 goals, 8 assists, 60 key passes, rating 6.8; Championship 2026-27 before the move: 3 starts, 274 minutes, 1 goal, rating 7.27. Worrall, Premier League 2025-26 for Burnley: 11 appearances, 5 starts, 517 minutes, rating 6.52, plus 180 League Cup minutes; no Championship minutes this season. Iorpenda, League Two 2025-26 for Notts County: 49 appearances, 46 starts, 3,864 minutes, 3 goals, 8 assists, 42 key passes, 101 tackles, 309 duels won, rating 6.87
This season's Championship, three games in, is too small a pool to rank: O'Hare's 274 minutes for Sheffield United show one goal and nine fouls drawn, and Worrall has no Championship minutes. Neither is promoted into a league claim
scripts/player-outliers.mjs, top-five ranks only, minute floor 270. O'Hare in the 2025-26 Championship: 8 assists ranked 3rd of 584 players, 60 key passes ranked 5th. Iorpenda in 2025-26 League Two: 93 fouls drawn ranked 2nd of 381, 101 tackles ranked 3rd; 8 assists ranked 7th. Worrall in the 2025-26 Premier League: no top-five rank on any measure across 517 minutes
Wrexham are 22nd in the Championship with three goals in three games, joint-lowest in the division, before Millwall away on 2 September; Swansea City are top with one conceded in four. Whether O'Hare and Worrall are registered for Millwall is not stated by the club; Iorpenda was an unused substitute against Watford on 1 September
Cover ranks every signing against the whole of the league he has just left, on totals and per 90 minutes, and prints a rank only when it is top five. Callum O'Hare, signed by Wrexham from Sheffield United on deadline day, has two. His eight assists in the 2025-26 Championship ranked third of 584 players who cleared the minute floor, and his 60 key passes ranked fifth, over 45 appearances and 3,468 minutes. He had already started Sheffield United's first three games of this season, 274 minutes and a goal, before the move. Wrexham have scored three goals in three games, the joint-lowest total in the division, which is the number the signing is for.
Iorpenda: second in League Two for being fouled
Tom Iorpenda, 21, signed by Swansea City from Huddersfield Town on 31 August, spent last season on loan at Notts County and played more than anyone else in this piece: 49 League Two appearances, 46 starts, 3,864 minutes. The scan ranks him second of 381 League Two players for fouls drawn, with 93, and third for tackles, with 101. His eight assists by the feed's count, seven by the club's, ranked seventh. That is a midfielder who carries the ball into contact and wins it back, which is the profile Vitor Matos described, "aggressive" and "driving forward with the ball at his feet". The rank is a League Two rank, one division below the one he has joined, and the card says so.
Worrall: no rank, and why that is the honest card
Joe Worrall, 29, signed by Wrexham from Burnley, played 517 Premier League minutes last season, 11 appearances and five starts, at an average rating of 6.52. The scanner found no measure on which he ranked in the top five, which for a centre-back playing a third of a season at a promoted club is what a sample of that size returns. His card leads on minutes because minutes are what the season produced. The club's own count of 27 appearances in all competitions across two seasons is the fuller record, and the piece prints it as the club's.
Three games into this season the Championship pool is too small to rank anyone, so nothing above is promoted into a claim about 2026-27. Whether O'Hare and Worrall are registered for Millwall on Wednesday night is not stated by Wrexham; Iorpenda was an unused substitute for Swansea City against Watford. No fee is printed for any of the three because none is stated.
