Scout report
C. Ekuban is a 32-year-old centre-forward at Genoa, rated 26.9 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 363rd of 388 on scout potential in the Serie A. A seasoned veteran, he has been a fringe squad member this season (32.2% of available minutes). He brings 0.46 goal contributions per 90 (0.37 goals, 0.09 assists). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Ekuban.
Judged on this season alone, Ekuban graded 22 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 34th of 49 of the 49 centre-forwards in the Serie A, on 4 goals and 1 assist in 31 appearances (0.456 involvements per 90).
Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 11 → 22). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2020/21.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 27, 45th of 49 of the 49 centre-forwards in the Serie A. At 32 Ekuban is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 9 reflects that trajectory.
Read the appearance count in context: Ekuban missed 4 games through injury (unknown, muscle, inactive) out of roughly 38 this season. The 31 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 2020/21 peak but holding a solid level — the platform for a return is there.
Output in context · Genoa finished 16th of 20 · a lower-table side
4 goals in 31 appearances (0.13 per game) — light end product the role wants to see climb. Add 1 assist for 5 goal contributions in all.
Strengths
- Final-third output. 0.46 goal contributions per 90 (0.37 goals, 0.09 assists) — productive for the role.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 32.2% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
- Age curve. At 32, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
With a Rating of 26.9, Ekuban carries the 45th-highest potential of the centre-forwards in the Serie A of 49, and he is posting that for a lower-table side (Genoa finished 16th of 20) — 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 (0.46 goal contributions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.8× and falling).
