Strengths

Ceiling. High potential at just 22 — room to grow into a bigger role.

Watch points

Game time. Only 9.8% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
Output. 0 contributions per 90 is light for an attacking role — end product needs to climb.

Outlook

Rated 59.9 overall — a strong, regular top-tier starter. In the final third he profiles as a work-in-progress on end product (0 goal contributions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 1.9×) with the best seasons likely ahead. With this floor already at 22, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.

At 22, Mbaye sits on 33.2, still climbing toward its peak. The blue line is Mbaye's projected Rating — 59.9 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.
