On long-term talent our Rating reads 46. At 23 Iqbal is still climbing toward his ceiling, and a market index of 38 reflects that trajectory.
Read the appearance count in context: Iqbal missed 3 games through injury (knee) out of roughly 38 this season. The 11 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.
Below his 2024/25 peak but holding a solid level — the platform for a return is there.
4.45 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 1 clean sheet across 11 appearances. Going forward he chipped in 0 goals and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.
Rated 46.4 overall — a solid contributor and squad regular. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (4.45 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90), with a bit more on the ball than most in the role. Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead.

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 (~38), then tapers with age. At 23, Iqbal sits on 38, at or near its peak. The blue line is Iqbal's projected Rating — 46.4 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.
