Outlook

With a Rating of 39.2, Manneh carries the 6th-highest potential of the centre-forwards in the Jupiler Pro League of 8 — though on just 11 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. In the final third he profiles as a genuine goal threat (0.56 goal contributions per 90). At 21 the trajectory points up — potential sits near its ceiling (97/100) and market value should climb as minutes and output follow.
