Goals / app

5 goals in 27 appearances (0.19 per game) for a title-challenging side. Add 2 assists for 7 goal contributions in all.

Strengths

  • Availability. On the pitch for 79.5% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.

Watch points

  • Output. 0.29 contributions per 90 is light for an attacking role — end product needs to climb.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 21, Lungu carries the 8th-highest potential of the centre-forwards in the Premier Soccer League (top 23%). In the final third he profiles as a work-in-progress on end product (0.29 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.
