Goals / app

5 goals in 27 appearances (0.19 per game), a meaningful share of the load for a relegation-threatened side. He also laid on 3 assists, so the all-round involvement reads 8 goal contributions (0.3 per appearance).

Strengths

  • Availability. On the pitch for 85.3% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
  • Defensive volume. 3.56 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 27.3, Mbekeli carries the 8th-highest potential of the attacking midfielders in the Super League (top 27%), and he is posting that for a relegation-threatened side (Meizhou Kejia finished 15th of 16) — 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 work-in-progress on end product (0.31 goal contributions per 90). In the prime window — at or near peak market value, so the next two seasons are the ones to cash in or build around.
