Kevin Yakob is a 25-year-old attacking midfielder at Aarhus, rated 41.5 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 34th of 88 on scout potential in the Superliga. In his prime years, he has been a regular starter this season (62.4% of available minutes). He brings 0.37 goal contributions per 90 (0.25 goals, 0.12 assists). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Yakob.

Judged on this season alone, Yakob graded 26 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 8th of 9 of the 9 attacking midfielders in the Superliga, on 4 goals and 2 assists in 26 appearances (0.37 involvements per 90).

Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 29 → 26). Over the 4 seasons on record his form has trended upward, peaking in 2022/23.

4 goals in 26 appearances (0.15 per game) — light end product the role wants to see climb. Add 2 assists for 6 goal contributions in all.

Strengths

  • Availability. On the pitch for 62.4% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
  • Final-third output. 0.37 goal contributions per 90 (0.25 goals, 0.12 assists) — productive for the role.

Watch points

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

Outlook

With a Rating of 41.5, Yakob carries the 7th-highest potential of the attacking midfielders in the Superliga of 9, and he is posting that for a relegation-threatened side (Aarhus finished 11th of 12) — 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 (0.37 goal contributions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead.
