  • Final-third output. 0.4 goal contributions per 90 (0 goals, 0.4 assists) — productive for the role.
  • Ceiling. High potential at just 18 — room to grow into a bigger role.

Outlook

With a Rating of 60.2, Karetsas carries the 6th-highest potential of the attacking midfielders in the Jupiler Pro League (top 14%). In the final third he profiles as a productive contributor (0.4 goal contributions per 90). At 18 the trajectory points up — potential sits near its ceiling (100/100) and market value should climb as minutes and output follow. With this floor already at 18, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.
