6 goals in 33 appearances (0.18 per game), a meaningful share of the load for a relegation-threatened side. He also laid on 4 assists, so the all-round involvement reads 10 goal contributions (0.3 per appearance).

Strengths

  • Availability. On the pitch for 84.6% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
  • Final-third output. 0.36 goal contributions per 90 (0.22 goals, 0.14 assists) — productive for the role.

Watch points

  • Few red flags. No obvious weaknesses in the current-season profile — consistency is the next test.

Outlook

With a Rating of 80.1, Abline carries the 8th-highest potential of the wingers in the Ligue 1 (top 23%), and he is posting that for a relegation-threatened side (Nantes finished 17th of 18) — 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 productive contributor (0.36 goal contributions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead. With this floor already at 23, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.
