Strengths

  • Availability. On the pitch for 77.3% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.

Watch points

  • Output. 0.26 contributions per 90 is light for an attacking role — end product needs to climb.

Outlook

With a Rating of 23.6, Ndlovu carries the 5th-highest potential of the centre-forwards in the Premier Soccer League (top 15%). In the final third he profiles as a work-in-progress on end product (0.26 goal contributions per 90). In the prime window — at or near peak market value, so the next two seasons are the ones to cash in or build around.
