5 goals in 20 appearances (0.25 per game), a meaningful share of the load for a relegation-threatened side. Add 2 assists for 7 goal contributions in all.

Strengths

  • Availability. On the pitch for 86.6% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
  • Final-third output. 0.4 goal contributions per 90 (0.29 goals, 0.12 assists) — productive for the role.

Watch points

  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 42.6, Cornelius carries the 10th-highest potential of the wingers in the Eliteserien of 22, and he is posting that for a relegation-threatened side (Start finished 16th of 16) — 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.
