K. Velde is a 26-year-old attacking midfielder at Portland Timbers, rated 35.5 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 240th of 513 in the Major League Soccer. In his prime years, he has been a fringe squad member this season (29.9% of available minutes). He brings 0.35 goal contributions per 90 (0.18 goals, 0.18 assists). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Velde.
Judged on this season alone, Velde graded 12 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 41st of 50 of the 50 attacking midfielders in the Major League Soccer, on 2 goals and 2 assists in 11 appearances (0.352 involvements per 90).
Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 18 → 12). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2021/22.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 36, 30th of 50 of the 50 attacking midfielders in the Major League Soccer. At 26 Velde is in his prime years, and a market index of 6.6 reflects that trajectory.
Past his 2021/22 peak — the recent trend is downward, so buyers are paying for what's left, not what was.
2 goals in 11 appearances (0.18 per game) — light end product the role wants to see climb. Add 2 assists for 4 goal contributions in all.
With a Rating of 35.5, Velde carries the 30th-highest potential of the attacking midfielders in the Major League Soccer of 50 — though on just 11 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. In the final third he profiles as a productive contributor (0.35 goal contributions 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.

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 (~7), then tapers with age. At 26, Velde sits on 6.6, at or near its peak. The blue line is Velde's projected Rating — 35.5 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.
