Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 42 → 89). Across the 6 seasons we hold, it's his best return yet.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 53, 21st of 36 of the 36 centre-forwards in the Bundesliga. At 30 Undav is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 26.4 reflects that trajectory.

Read the appearance count in context: Undav missed 4 games through injury (knee, yellow cards) out of roughly 34 this season. The 29 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.
