Goals / app

0 goals in 1 appearance (0 per game) — light end product the role wants to see climb.

Strengths

Ceiling. High potential at just 18 — room to grow into a bigger role.

Watch points

Game time. Only 3.7% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
Output. 0 contributions per 90 is light for an attacking role — end product needs to climb.

Outlook

Rated 61.9 overall — a strong, regular top-tier starter. In the final third he profiles as a work-in-progress on end product (0 goal contributions per 90). At 18 the trajectory points up — potential sits near its ceiling (100/100) and market value should climb as minutes and output follow. With this floor already at 18, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.

Market valueRating

Solid = now · dashed = projected

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 (~36), then tapers with age. At 18, Kone sits on 27.1, still climbing toward its peak. The blue line is Kone's projected Rating — 61.9 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.
