2 goals in 17 appearances (0.12 per game) — light end product the role wants to see climb. Add 1 assist for 3 goal contributions in all.

Strengths

  • Final-third output. 0.41 goal contributions per 90 (0.27 goals, 0.14 assists) — productive for the role.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 22.1% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 18.6, Šaponjić carries the 18th-highest potential of the centre-forwards in the NB I of 28 — though on just 17 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. In the final third he profiles as a productive contributor (0.41 goal contributions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.1× now → 0.8× projected in three years).
