A. Nwakaeme is a 37-year-old attacking midfielder at Trabzonspor, rated 8.1 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 715th of 720 in the 1. Lig.

Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Nwakaeme.
Judged on this season alone, Nwakaeme graded 11 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 97th of 127 of the 127 attacking midfielders in the 1. Lig, on 0 goals and 2 assists in 15 appearances (0.277 involvements per 90).
Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 14 → 11). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2021/22.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 8, 127th of 127 of the 127 attacking midfielders in the 1. Lig. At 37 Nwakaeme is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 1.3 reflects that trajectory.
Read the appearance count in context: Nwakaeme missed 16 games through injury (muscle, muscle bruise) out of roughly 34 this season. The 15 he did play is a solid return on the time he was fit, and his ratings are weighted toward those games rather than the ones he sat out injured.
Past his 2021/22 peak — the recent trend is downward, so buyers are paying for what's left, not what was.
0 goals in 15 appearances (0 per game) — light end product the role wants to see climb. Add 2 assists for 2 goal contributions in all.
With a Rating of 8.1, Nwakaeme carries the 127th-highest potential of the attacking midfielders in the 1. Lig of 127 — though on just 15 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). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.5× and falling).

The gold line is market value — an index (not €) blending rating, age and league. It climbs through the early 20s, peaks around ages 23–27 (~5), then tapers with age. At 37, Nwakaeme sits on 1.3, past its peak and easing. The blue line is Nwakaeme's projected Rating — 8.1 today — recomputed at each age, so it follows the same rise-and-fall as a career matures and declines. Solid = up to today; dashed = projected.
