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

Judged on this season alone, Menalo graded 10 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 27th of 35 of the 35 attacking midfielders in the HNL, on 3 goals and 0 assists in 15 appearances (0.353 involvements per 90).

We hold a single season for Menalo, so there's no year-on-year comparison to draw yet — the read above is this campaign only.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 17, 33rd of 35 of the 35 attacking midfielders in the HNL. At 30 Menalo is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 1.2 reflects that trajectory.

Goals / app

3 goals in 15 appearances (0.2 per game) — light end product the role wants to see climb.

Strengths

  • Final-third output. 0.35 goal contributions per 90 (0.35 goals, 0 assists) — productive for the role.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 23.6% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 17.4, Menalo carries the 33rd-highest potential of the attacking midfielders in the HNL of 35 — though on just 15 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). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1× now → 0.7× projected in three years).
