Watch points

Game time. Only 49.9% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.

Outlook

Rated 48.1 overall — a solid contributor and squad regular. In the final third he profiles as a genuine goal threat (0.73 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.

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 (~11), then tapers with age. At 21, Iheanacho sits on 9.5, still climbing toward its peak. The blue line is Iheanacho's projected Rating — 48.1 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.
