Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 14 → 1). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2022/23.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 52. At 24 Tielemans is in his prime years, and a market index of 23.9 reflects that trajectory.
Read the appearance count in context: Tielemans missed 11 games through injury (inactive, wound) out of roughly 34 this season. The 2 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.
Past his 2022/23 peak — the recent trend is downward, so buyers are paying for what's left, not what was.
Output in context · Excelsior finished 13th of 18 · a lower-table side
2.03 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume across 2 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (13th of 18) 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.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 6.4% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
Outlook
Rated 51.9 overall — a solid contributor and squad regular. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.03 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead. Doing it for a lesser side, he profiles as a value buy for a club higher up the table.
