Strengths

  • Final-third output. 0.43 goal contributions per 90 (0.24 goals, 0.19 assists) — productive for the role.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 45.2% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Age curve. At 31, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 15.6, Ndlovu carries the 48th-highest potential of the centre-forwards in the League Two of 70. In the final third he profiles as a productive contributor (0.43 goal contributions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.9× and falling).
