Squad depthCentre-forward

P. Dárdai is a 27-year-old centre-forward at Puskas Academy, rated 24.8 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 66th of 132 on scout potential in the NB I. In his prime years, he has been a fringe squad member this season (33.2% of available minutes). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Dárdai.

Judged on this season alone, Dárdai graded 5 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 18th of 20 of the 20 centre-forwards in the NB I, on 1 goal and 0 assists in 23 appearances (0.091 involvements per 90).

Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 5 → 5). Over the 3 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2023/24.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 25, 9th of 20 of the 20 centre-forwards in the NB I. At 27 Dárdai is in his prime years, and a market index of 3.2 reflects that trajectory.

1 goal in 23 appearances (0.04 per game) — light end product the role wants to see climb.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 33.2% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Output. 0.09 contributions per 90 is light for an attacking role — end product needs to climb.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 24.8, Dárdai carries the 9th-highest potential of the centre-forwards in the NB I of 20. In the final third he profiles as a work-in-progress on end product (0.09 goal contributions per 90). In the prime window — at or near peak market value, so the next two seasons are the ones to cash in or build around.
