8 goals in 34 appearances (0.24 per game), a meaningful share of the load for a lower-table side. He also laid on 5 assists, so the all-round involvement reads 13 goal contributions (0.38 per appearance).

Strengths

Availability. On the pitch for 96.4% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
Final-third output. 0.4 goal contributions per 90 (0.24 goals, 0.15 assists) — productive for the role.

Watch points

Defensive numbers. Modest 1.62 defensive actions per 90 for the position.

Outlook

With a Rating of 82.1, Soumaré carries the 10th-highest potential of the attacking midfielders in the Ligue 1 (top 20%), and he is posting that for a lower-table side (Le Havre finished 14th of 18) — individual numbers are harder to earn on a struggling team, so his underlying level likely sits a touch above the ranking. In the final third he profiles as a productive contributor (0.4 goal contributions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead. Doing it for a lesser side, he profiles as a value buy for a club higher up the table.

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 (~48), then tapers with age. At 25, Soumaré sits on 47.9, at or near its peak. The blue line is Soumaré's projected Rating — 82.1 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.
