Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 20 → 28). Over the 7 seasons on record his form has trended upward, peaking in 2022/23.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 14, 34th of 37 of the 37 centre-backs in the Eerste Divisie. At 34 Lawrence is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 2 reflects that trajectory.
A career still climbing — Lawrence is at his peak right now, and the curve hasn't flattened.
Output in context · Almere City FC finished 2nd of 20 · a title-challenging side
4.75 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 3 clean sheets across 8 appearances. Behind a title-challenging side (2nd of 20) 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.
Strengths
- Defensive volume. 4.75 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 39.9% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
- Age curve. At 34, 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 13.8, Lawrence carries the 34th-highest potential of the centre-backs in the Eerste Divisie of 37 — though on just 8 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (4.75 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.6× and falling).
