Clean sheets

3.44 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume across 24 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (12th of 12) is harder than the bare numbers suggest: a back line under more pressure has to defend more often and protects fewer leads, so the volume — and any clean sheets — carry real weight. Going forward he chipped in 5 goals and 0 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.31 goal involvements per 90, useful for a defensive midfielder.

Watch points

Game time. Only 42.9% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
Age curve. At 34, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

Rated 10.8 overall — below regular-starter level. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (3.44 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.6× and falling).

Market valueRating

Solid = now · dashed = projected

The gold line is market value — an index (not €) blending rating, age and league. It climbs through the early 20s, peaks around ages 23–27 (~4), then tapers with age. At 34, Kasami sits on 1, past its peak and easing. The blue line is Kasami's projected Rating — 10.8 today — recomputed at each age, so it follows the same rise-and-fall as a career matures and declines. Solid = up to today; dashed = projected.
