Clean sheets

1.93 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume, with 1 clean sheet across 7 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (4th of 18) the side controls more games, so the defensive load is lighter — the value sits as much in composure and ball progression as in raw volume. Going forward he chipped in 0 goals and 2 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.3 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central midfielder.

Watch points

Game time. Only 39.7% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
Defensive numbers. Modest 1.93 defensive actions per 90 for the position.
Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 37.1, Aouar carries the 8th-highest potential of the central midfielders in the Pro League of 32 — though on just 7 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as light defensive volume (1.93 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90), with a bit more on the ball than most in the role. Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.2× now → 0.9× projected in three years).

The gold line is market value — an index (not €) blending rating, age and league. It climbs through the early 20s, peaks around ages 23–27 (~11), then tapers with age. At 28, Aouar sits on 6.6, past its peak and easing. The blue line is Aouar's projected Rating — 37.1 today — recomputed at each age, so it follows the same rise-and-fall as a career matures and declines. Solid = up to today; dashed = projected.
