On the season, Jong graded 4 for current form (age-blind), on 1 goal and 0 assists in 5 appearances (0.342 involvements per 90).

1 goal in 5 appearances (0.2 per game) — light end product the role wants to see climb.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 8.6% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Age curve. At 35, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

Rated 10.3 overall — below regular-starter level. In the final third he profiles as a work-in-progress on end product (0.34 goal contributions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.6× and falling).
