On long-term talent our Rating reads 39. At 21 Akpan is still climbing toward his ceiling, and a market index of 7.1 reflects that trajectory.
Past his 2024/25 peak — the recent trend is downward, so buyers are paying for what's left, not what was.
Output in context · KRC Genk II finished 15th of 17 · a relegation-threatened side
5.74 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — high defensive volume, with 1 clean sheet across 9 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (15th of 17) is harder than the bare numbers suggest: a back line under more pressure has to defend more often and protects fewer leads, so the volume — and any clean sheets — carry real weight. Going forward he chipped in 0 goals and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.16 goal involvements per 90, useful for a defensive midfielder.
- Defensive volume. 5.74 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 19.1% 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 39.1 overall — developing / rotation level. Defensively he reads as high defensive volume (5.74 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90), with a bit more on the ball than most in the role. At 21 the trajectory points up — potential sits near its ceiling (97/100) and market value should climb as minutes and output follow.
