6 goals in 18 appearances (0.33 per game), a meaningful share of the load for a lower-table side. Add 2 assists for 8 goal contributions in all.

Strengths

  • Final-third output. 0.78 goal contributions per 90 (0.58 goals, 0.2 assists) — productive for the role.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 31.1% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Age curve. At 32, 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 13, Salem carries the 43rd-highest potential of the attacking midfielders in the Premier League of 45, and he is posting that for a lower-table side (El Mokawloon finished 17th of 21) — 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 (0.78 goal contributions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.8× and falling).
