Scout report

Experienced headCentre-forward

S. Mounié is a 31-year-old centre-forward at FC Augsburg, rated 18.9 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 313th of 323 on scout potential in the Bundesliga. A seasoned veteran, he has been a fringe squad member this season (25.6% of available minutes). He brings 0.25 goal contributions per 90 (0.25 goals, 0 assists). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Mounié.

Judged on this season alone, Mounié graded 9 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 46th of 47 of the 47 centre-forwards in the Bundesliga, on 2 goals and 0 assists in 21 appearances (0.252 involvements per 90).

Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 5 → 9). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2020/21.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 19, 47th of 47 of the 47 centre-forwards in the Bundesliga. At 31 Mounié is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 5.1 reflects that trajectory.

Read the appearance count in context: Mounié missed 3 games through injury (inactive, international duty, yellow cards) out of roughly 34 this season. The 21 he did play is a solid return on the time he was fit, and his ratings are weighted toward those games rather than the ones he sat out injured.

2 goals in 21 appearances (0.1 per game) — light end product the role wants to see climb.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 25.6% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Output. 0.25 contributions per 90 is light for an attacking role — end product needs to climb.
  • Age curve. At 31, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 18.9, Mounié carries the 47th-highest potential of the centre-forwards in the Bundesliga of 47 — though on just 21 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. In the final third he profiles as a work-in-progress on end product (0.25 goal contributions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.9× and falling).
