Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Ommeren.

Judged on this season alone, Ommeren graded 20 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 12th of 26 of the 26 defensive midfielders in the Eerste Divisie, on 0 goals, 2 assists and 5.302 defensive actions per 90.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 54, top 20% of the 26 defensive midfielders in the Eerste Divisie. At 18 Ommeren is still climbing toward his ceiling, and a market index of 11.9 reflects that trajectory.

Read the appearance count in context: Ommeren missed 8 games through injury (injury) out of roughly 38 this season. The 19 he did play is a solid return on the time he was fit, and his ratings are weighted toward those games rather than the ones he sat out injured.

Clean sheets

5.3 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — high defensive volume, with 3 clean sheets across 19 appearances. Going forward he chipped in 0 goals and 2 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Defensive volume. 5.3 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.
  • Ceiling. High potential at just 18 — room to grow into a bigger role.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 37.2% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.

Outlook

With a Rating of 53.8, Ommeren carries the 5th-highest potential of the defensive midfielders in the Eerste Divisie (top 20%). Defensively he reads as high defensive volume (5.3 tackles, blocks & interceptions 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.
