Scout report
A. Ibrahim is a 24-year-old centre-forward at Houston Dynamo, rated 39.9 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 179th of 491 on scout potential in the Major League Soccer. An emerging talent, he has been a fringe squad member this season (26.2% of available minutes). He brings 0.28 goal contributions per 90 (0.28 goals, 0 assists). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Ibrahim.
Judged on this season alone, Ibrahim graded 10 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 43rd of 50 of the 50 centre-forwards in the Major League Soccer, on 2 goals and 0 assists in 20 appearances (0.283 involvements per 90).
Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 15 → 10). Over the 4 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2024/25.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 40, top 36% of the 50 centre-forwards in the Major League Soccer. At 24 Ibrahim is in his prime years, and a market index of 7.5 reflects that trajectory.
Past his 2024/25 peak — the recent trend is downward, so buyers are paying for what's left, not what was.
Output in context · Houston Dynamo finished 2nd of 15 · a title-challenging side
2 goals in 20 appearances (0.1 per game) — light end product the role wants to see climb.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 26.2% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
- Output. 0.28 contributions per 90 is light for an attacking role — end product needs to climb.
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
With a Rating of 39.9, Ibrahim carries the 18th-highest potential of the centre-forwards in the Major League Soccer of 50 — though on just 20 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. In the final third he profiles as a work-in-progress on end product (0.28 goal contributions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead.
