Goals / app

2 goals in 25 appearances (0.08 per game) — light end product the role wants to see climb. He also laid on 4 assists, so the all-round involvement reads 6 goal contributions (0.24 per appearance).

Strengths

  • Final-third output. 0.42 goal contributions per 90 (0.14 goals, 0.28 assists) — productive for the role.
  • Defensive volume. 3.61 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.
  • Pedigree. Performing in a top-tier setting (team strength 92/100).
  • Ceiling. High potential at just 21 — room to grow into a bigger role.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 37.9% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.

Outlook

With a Rating of 82.1, Pisilli carries the 6th-highest potential of the defensive midfielders in the Serie A (top 11%). In the final third he profiles as a productive contributor (0.42 goal contributions per 90). At 21 the trajectory points up — potential sits near its ceiling (97/100) and market value should climb as minutes and output follow. With this floor already at 21, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.
