Clean sheets

1.56 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume, with 3 clean sheets across 33 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (20th of 24) is harder than the bare numbers suggest: a back line under more pressure has to defend more often and protects fewer leads, so the volume — and any clean sheets — carry real weight. Going forward he chipped in 3 goals and 2 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.33 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central midfielder.

Outlook

Rated 34.9 overall — developing / rotation level. Defensively he reads as light defensive volume (1.56 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). In the prime window — at or near peak market value, so the next two seasons are the ones to cash in or build around.

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 age 27 (~8), then tapers with age. At 27, Koroma sits on 7.8, at or near its peak. The blue line is Koroma's projected Rating — 34.9 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.
