Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 32 → 9). Over the 3 seasons on record his form has trended upward, peaking in 2023/24.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 30. At 27 Ali is in his prime years, and a market index of 15.7 reflects that trajectory.
Read the appearance count in context: Ali missed 6 games through injury (ankle) out of roughly 37 this season. The 5 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.
3 goals in 5 appearances (0.6 per game) — light end product the role wants to see climb.
Rated 30.2 overall — below regular-starter level. In the final third he profiles as a genuine goal threat (0.87 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.

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 (~16), then tapers with age. At 27, Ali sits on 15.7, at or near its peak. The blue line is Ali's projected Rating — 30.2 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.
