3 goals in 24 appearances (0.13 per game) — light end product the role wants to see climb.

Strengths

  • Availability. On the pitch for 64.8% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.

Watch points

  • Output. 0.15 contributions per 90 is light for an attacking role — end product needs to climb.
  • Age curve. At 31, 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 11.8, Ndlondlo carries the 23rd-highest potential of the centre-forwards in the Premier Soccer League of 35, and he is posting that for a relegation-threatened side (Marumo Gallants finished 14th of 16) — 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 work-in-progress on end product (0.15 goal contributions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.9× and falling).
