Goals / app

2 goals in 9 appearances (0.22 per game) — light end product the role wants to see climb. Add 2 assists for 4 goal contributions in all.

Strengths

  • Final-third output. 0.59 goal contributions per 90 (0.3 goals, 0.3 assists) — productive for the role.
  • Defensive volume. 4.89 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.
  • Ceiling. High potential at just 21 — room to grow into a bigger role.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 17.8% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.

Outlook

With a Rating of 66, Maik carries the 3rd-highest potential of the defensive midfielders in the Serie A of 57 — though on just 9 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. In the final third he profiles as a genuine goal threat (0.59 goal contributions per 90). At 21 the trajectory points up — potential sits near its ceiling (97/100) and market value should climb as minutes and output follow. With this floor already at 21, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.
