Goals / app

14 goals in 31 appearances (0.45 per game) — double figures playing for a title-challenging side (1st of 18). Add 1 assist for 15 goal contributions in all.

Strengths

  • Final-third output. 1 goal contributions per 90 (0.94 goals, 0.07 assists) — productive for the role.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 44% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Age curve. At 33, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 16.5, Icardi carries the 29th-highest potential of the centre-forwards in the Süper Lig of 31. In the final third he profiles as a genuine goal threat (1 goal contributions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.7× and falling).
