Scout report

Squad depthGoal-getting Attacking midfielder

A. Gholizadeh is a 30-year-old attacking midfielder at Lech Poznan, enjoying a standout season — 6 goals and 4 assists in 19 appearances, a Season grade of 33, top 21% of Ekstraklasa attacking midfielders. On long-term scout potential he's rated 22.7, ranking 234th of 332 in the Ekstraklasa. An experienced operator, he has been a rotation option (48.6% of available minutes). He brings 0.79 goal contributions per 90 (0.48 goals, 0.32 assists). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Gholizadeh.

Judged on this season alone, Gholizadeh graded 33 — a strong campaign that ranks top 21% of the 39 attacking midfielders in the Ekstraklasa, on 6 goals and 4 assists in 19 appearances (0.792 involvements per 90).

Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 30 → 33). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2020/21.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 23, 31st of 39 of the 39 attacking midfielders in the Ekstraklasa. At 30 Gholizadeh is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 2.7 reflects that trajectory.

Read the appearance count in context: Gholizadeh missed 8 games through injury (thigh problems) out of roughly 34 this season. The 19 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.

Goals / app

6 goals in 19 appearances (0.32 per game) for a title-challenging side. He also laid on 4 assists, so the all-round involvement reads 10 goal contributions (0.53 per appearance).

Strengths

  • Final-third output. 0.79 goal contributions per 90 (0.48 goals, 0.32 assists) — productive for the role.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 48.6% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Defensive numbers. Modest 1.03 defensive actions per 90 for the position.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 22.7, Gholizadeh carries the 31st-highest potential of the attacking midfielders in the Ekstraklasa of 39. In the final third he profiles as a genuine goal threat (0.79 goal contributions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1× now → 0.7× projected in three years).
