Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 45 → 60). Across the 6 seasons we hold, it's his best return yet.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 55, 23rd of 34 of the 34 attacking midfielders in the Bundesliga. At 29 Amiri is in his prime years, and a market index of 30.3 reflects that trajectory.

Read the appearance count in context: Amiri missed 5 games through injury (heel, yellow cards) out of roughly 34 this season. The 26 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.
