Judged on this season alone, Niang graded 22 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 23rd of 34 of the 34 centre-forwards in the Süper Lig, on 4 goals and 2 assists in 26 appearances (0.309 involvements per 90).
Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 5 → 22). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has trended upward, peaking in 2022/23.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 23, 25th of 34 of the 34 centre-forwards in the Süper Lig. At 31 Niang is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 3.8 reflects that trajectory.
Niang is operating at his career peak — the 2022/23 level is the level.
Output in context · Gençlerbirliği S.K. finished 14th of 18 · a lower-table side
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.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 58.8% 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 23.1, Niang carries the 25th-highest potential of the centre-forwards in the Süper Lig of 34, and he is posting that for a lower-table side (Gençlerbirliği S.K. finished 14th of 18) — 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 (0.31 goal contributions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.9× and falling).
