Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Karouani.

Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 43 → 44). Across the 6 seasons we hold, it's his best return yet.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 75, top 14% of the 51 full-backs in the Eredivisie. At 25 Karouani is in his prime years, and a market index of 95.4 reflects that trajectory.
A career still climbing — Karouani is at his peak right now, and the curve hasn't flattened.
3.75 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 9 clean sheets across 34 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (6th 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. Going forward he chipped in 3 goals and 12 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
With a Rating of 74.5, Karouani carries the 7th-highest potential of the full-backs in the Eredivisie (top 14%). Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (3.75 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90), with a bit more on the ball than most in the role. Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead.

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 (~95), then tapers with age. At 25, Karouani sits on 95.4, at or near its peak. The blue line is Karouani's projected Rating — 74.5 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.
