L. Ennali is a 24-year-old central midfielder at Houston Dynamo, rated 41.3 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 107th of 513 on scout potential in the Major League Soccer. An emerging talent, he has been a regular starter this season (61.3% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 1.45 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Ennali.
Judged on this season alone, Ennali graded 32 — a strong campaign that ranks top 29% of the 84 central midfielders in the Major League Soccer, on 1 goal, 4 assists and 1.45 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 2 → 32). Across the 5 seasons we hold, it's his best return yet.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 41, top 22% of the 84 central midfielders in the Major League Soccer. At 24 Ennali is in his prime years, and a market index of 10 reflects that trajectory.
Read the appearance count in context: Ennali missed 16 games through injury (knee) out of roughly 34 this season. The 18 he did play is a solid return on the time he was fit, and his ratings are weighted toward those games rather than the ones he sat out injured.
A career still climbing — Ennali is at his peak right now, and the curve hasn't flattened.
Output in context · Houston Dynamo finished 12th of 15 · a lower-table side
1.45 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume, with 3 clean sheets across 18 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (12th of 15) 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 1 goal and 4 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Availability. On the pitch for 61.3% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
- Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.45 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central midfielder.
- Creativity. 0.36 assists per 90 — a genuine creative outlet.
Watch points
- Defensive numbers. Modest 1.45 defensive actions per 90 for the position.
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
With a Rating of 41.3, Ennali carries the 18th-highest potential of the central midfielders in the Major League Soccer (top 22%), and he is posting that for a lower-table side (Houston Dynamo finished 12th of 15) — individual numbers are harder to earn on a struggling team, so his underlying level likely sits a touch above the ranking. Defensively he reads as light defensive volume (1.45 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90), with a bit more on the ball than most in the role. Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead.
