C. Kabongo is a 22-year-old centre-forward at Plzen, rated 50.9 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 75th of 320 on scout potential in the Czech Liga and 1716th of 1777 U-23 players tracked. An emerging talent, he has been a regular starter this season (60.4% of available minutes). He brings 0.92 goal contributions per 90 (0.55 goals, 0.37 assists). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Kabongo.

Judged on this season alone, Kabongo graded 48 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 25th of 45 of the 45 centre-forwards in the Czech Liga, on 4 goals and 2 assists in 12 appearances (0.92 involvements per 90).

Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 3 → 48). Across the 4 seasons we hold, it's his best return yet.

Goals / app

4 goals in 12 appearances (0.33 per game) — light end product the role wants to see climb. Add 2 assists for 6 goal contributions in all.

Strengths

  • Availability. On the pitch for 60.4% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
  • Final-third output. 0.92 goal contributions per 90 (0.55 goals, 0.37 assists) — productive for the role.
  • Ceiling. High potential at just 22 — room to grow into a bigger role.

Watch points

  • Few red flags. No obvious weaknesses in the current-season profile — consistency is the next test.

Outlook

With a Rating of 50.9, Kabongo carries the 7th-highest potential of the centre-forwards in the Czech Liga of 45 — though on just 12 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. In the final third he profiles as a genuine goal threat (0.92 goal contributions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 1.9×) with the best seasons likely ahead. With this floor already at 22, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.
