Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 53 → 55). Across the 4 seasons we hold, it's his best return yet.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 59, top 6% of the 34 central midfielders in the Eerste Divisie. At 22 Simons is still climbing toward his ceiling, and a market index of 25.9 reflects that trajectory.

Output in context · FC Eindhoven finished 16th of 20 · a lower-table side
3.23 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 8 clean sheets across 36 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (16th of 20) 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 7 goals and 3 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Availability. On the pitch for 91.3% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
- Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.3 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central midfielder.
- Ceiling. High potential at just 22 — room to grow into a bigger role.
Watch points
- Few red flags. No obvious weaknesses in the current-season profile — consistency is the next test.
Outlook
With a Rating of 58.8, Simons carries the 2nd-highest potential of the central midfielders in the Eerste Divisie (top 6%), and he is posting that for a lower-table side (FC Eindhoven finished 16th of 20) — individual numbers are harder to earn on a struggling team, so his underlying level likely sits a touch above the ranking. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (3.23 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 1.9×) with the best seasons likely ahead. With this floor already at 22, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.
