Scout report

Experienced headCentre-forward

F. Herbers is a 33-year-old centre-forward at CF Montreal, rated 10.5 overall by Field Insider's model. A seasoned veteran, he has been a fringe squad member this season (23.9% of available minutes). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Herbers.

On the season, Herbers graded 5 for current form (age-blind), on 1 goal and 0 assists in 16 appearances (0.123 involvements per 90).

Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 5 → 5). Over the 7 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2020/21.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 11. At 33 Herbers is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 0.7 reflects that trajectory.

1 goal in 16 appearances (0.06 per game) — light end product the role wants to see climb.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 23.9% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Output. 0.12 contributions per 90 is light for an attacking role — end product needs to climb.
  • Age curve. At 33, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

Rated 10.5 overall — below regular-starter level. In the final third he profiles as a work-in-progress on end product (0.12 goal contributions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.7× and falling).
