Strengths

  • Availability. On the pitch for 86.7% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.

Watch points

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

Outlook

With a Rating of 42.7, Lauberbach carries the 23rd-highest potential of the centre-forwards in the Jupiler Pro League of 31, and he is posting that for a relegation-threatened side (KV Mechelen finished 6th of 6) — 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 (0.34 goal contributions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.2× now → 0.9× projected in three years).
