Output in context · San Diego finished 12th of 15 · a lower-table side
12 goals in 23 appearances (0.52 per game) is double figures — and for a lower-table side (12th of 15), a real standout. Weaker sides create and score less, so carrying double-figure output there says more than the raw number alone. He also laid on 3 assists, so the all-round involvement reads 15 goal contributions (0.65 per appearance).
Strengths
- Availability. On the pitch for 70.3% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
- Final-third output. 0.79 goal contributions per 90 (0.63 goals, 0.16 assists) — productive for the role.
Watch points
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
With a Rating of 26.5, Ingvartsen carries the 32nd-highest potential of the centre-forwards in the Major League Soccer of 50, and he is posting that for a lower-table side (San Diego finished 12th of 15) — individual numbers are harder to earn on a struggling team, so his underlying level likely sits a touch above the ranking. In the final third he profiles as a genuine goal threat (0.79 goal contributions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1× now → 0.7× projected in three years).
