Watch points

  • Game time. Only 28.7% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Output. 0.29 contributions per 90 is light for an attacking role — end product needs to climb.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 32.2, Persson carries the 14th-highest potential of the centre-forwards in the Allsvenskan of 21 — though on just 24 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. In the final third he profiles as a work-in-progress on end product (0.29 goal contributions per 90). At 20 the trajectory points up — potential sits near its ceiling (98/100) and market value should climb as minutes and output follow.
