Strengths

  • Final-third output. 0.4 goal contributions per 90 (0.13 goals, 0.26 assists) — productive for the role.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 44.7% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 43.8, Abdulai carries the 7th-highest potential of the wingers in the Eliteserien of 19 — though on just 11 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. In the final third he profiles as a productive contributor (0.4 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.
