Strengths

Outlook

With a Rating of 33.7, Sundstrom carries the 3rd-highest potential of the full-backs in the USL Championship of 34 — though on just 14 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.24 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). At 19 the trajectory points up — potential sits near its ceiling (99/100) and market value should climb as minutes and output follow.
