Strengths

  • Final-third output. 0.78 goal contributions per 90 (0.37 goals, 0.42 assists) — productive for the role.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 50.4% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Defensive numbers. Modest 1.46 defensive actions per 90 for the position.
  • Age curve. At 36, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 16.9, Mieghem carries the 37th-highest potential of the attacking midfielders in the Eerste Divisie of 40. In the final third he profiles as a genuine goal threat (0.78 goal contributions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.6× and falling).
