Experienced headAttacking midfielder

M. Seuntjens is a 34-year-old attacking midfielder at Groningen, rated 10.7 overall by Field Insider's model. A seasoned veteran, he has been a fringe squad member this season (7.2% of available minutes). He brings 0.4 goal contributions per 90 (0.4 goals, 0 assists). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Seuntjens.

On the season, Seuntjens graded 4 for current form (age-blind), on 1 goal and 0 assists in 17 appearances (0.398 involvements per 90).

Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 6 → 4). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2021/22.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 11. At 34 Seuntjens is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 1.5 reflects that trajectory.

Read the appearance count in context: Seuntjens missed 6 games through injury (groin, inactive) out of roughly 35 this season. The 17 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.

Goals / app

1 goal in 17 appearances (0.06 per game) — light end product the role wants to see climb.

Strengths

  • Final-third output. 0.4 goal contributions per 90 (0.4 goals, 0 assists) — productive for the role.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 7.2% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Age curve. At 34, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

Rated 10.7 overall — below regular-starter level. In the final third he profiles as a productive contributor (0.4 goal contributions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.6× and falling).
