An experienced operator, he has been a fringe squad member this season (34.8% of available minutes). He brings 0.85 goal contributions per 90 (0.85 goals, 0 assists). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on En-Nesyri.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 34. At 29 En-Nesyri is in his prime years, and a market index of 3.5 reflects that trajectory.

Read the appearance count in context: En-Nesyri missed 3 games through injury (international duty) out of roughly 33 this season. The 8 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.

5 goals in 8 appearances (0.63 per game), a meaningful share of the load for a lower-table side.

Strengths

  • Final-third output. 0.85 goal contributions per 90 (0.85 goals, 0 assists) — productive for the role.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 34.8% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

Rated 33.9 overall — below regular-starter level. In the final third he profiles as a genuine goal threat (0.85 goal contributions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.1× now → 0.8× projected in three years).
