On long-term talent our Rating reads 57, 6th of 12 of the 12 central midfielders in the Ligue 2. At 19 Jamali is still climbing toward his ceiling, and a market index of 17.1 reflects that trajectory.
Output in context · Saint Etienne finished 3rd of 18 · an upper-table side
2.1 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 3 clean sheets across 15 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (3rd of 18) the side controls more games, so the defensive load is lighter — the value sits as much in composure and ball progression as in raw volume.
Strengths
- Ceiling. High potential at just 19 — room to grow into a bigger role.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 19.1% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
Outlook
With a Rating of 57.2, Jamali carries the 6th-highest potential of the central midfielders in the Ligue 2 of 12 — though on just 15 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.1 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). At 19 the trajectory points up — potential sits near its ceiling (99/100) and market value should climb as minutes and output follow. With this floor already at 19, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.
