Goals / app

6 goals in 29 appearances (0.21 per game), a meaningful share of the load for a lower-table side. Add 2 assists for 8 goal contributions in all.

Strengths

  • Final-third output. 0.57 goal contributions per 90 (0.43 goals, 0.14 assists) — productive for the role.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 41.4% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Defensive numbers. Modest 1.14 defensive actions per 90 for the position.

Outlook

With a Rating of 46.9, Fatou carries the 2nd-highest potential of the attacking midfielders in the Ligue 2 of 3, and he is posting that for a lower-table side (Boulogne finished 15th of 18) — individual numbers are harder to earn on a struggling team, so his underlying level likely sits a touch above the ranking. In the final third he profiles as a genuine goal threat (0.57 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.
