Goals / app

6 goals in 33 appearances (0.18 per game), a meaningful share of the load for a relegation-threatened side. He also laid on 3 assists, so the all-round involvement reads 9 goal contributions (0.27 per appearance).

Strengths

  • Final-third output. 0.53 goal contributions per 90 (0.35 goals, 0.18 assists) — productive for the role.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 51.8% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Defensive numbers. Modest 1.05 defensive actions per 90 for the position.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 45.4, Mordechai carries the 1st-highest potential of the attacking midfielders in the Ligat Ha'al (top 8%), and he is posting that for a relegation-threatened side (Maccabi Haifa finished 5th of 6) — individual numbers are harder to earn on a struggling team, so his underlying level likely sits a touch above the ranking. In the final third he profiles as a productive contributor (0.53 goal contributions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 1.9×) with the best seasons likely ahead.
