Judged on this season alone, Duelund graded 33 — a strong campaign that ranks top 24% of the 34 attacking midfielders in the Superliga, on 8 goals and 1 assist in 25 appearances (0.518 involvements per 90).

Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 0 → 33). Across the 6 seasons we hold, it's his best return yet.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 29, 27th of 34 of the 34 attacking midfielders in the Superliga. At 29 Duelund is in his prime years, and a market index of 4.9 reflects that trajectory.

Read the appearance count in context: Duelund missed 3 games through injury (achilles tendon problems, injury, yellow cards) out of roughly 32 this season. The 25 he did play is a solid return on the time he was fit, and his ratings are weighted toward those games rather than the ones he sat out injured.
