On long-term talent our Rating reads 14, 70th of 85 of the 85 centre-backs in the Premier League. At 32 Abou-Salima is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 1.2 reflects that trajectory.
Output in context · Haras El Hodood finished 18th of 21 · a lower-table side
2.34 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 5 clean sheets across 26 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (18th of 21) is harder than the bare numbers suggest: a back line under more pressure has to defend more often and protects fewer leads, so the volume — and any clean sheets — carry real weight. Going forward he chipped in 1 goal and 0 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 51.8% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
- Age curve. At 32, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
With a Rating of 13.9, Abou-Salima carries the 70th-highest potential of the centre-backs in the Premier League of 85, and he is posting that for a lower-table side (Haras El Hodood finished 18th of 21) — individual numbers are harder to earn on a struggling team, so his underlying level likely sits a touch above the ranking. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.34 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.8× and falling).
