N. El Jamali is a 19-year-old central midfielder at Saint Etienne, rated 57.7 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 103rd of 313 on scout potential in the Ligue 2 and 249th of 995 U-21 players tracked. A young player, he has been a fringe squad member this season (21.5% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 2.1 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Jamali.

Judged on this season alone, Jamali graded 4 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 50th of 50 of the 50 central midfielders in the Ligue 2, on 0 goals, 0 assists and 2.097 defensive actions per 90.

We hold a single season for Jamali, so there's no year-on-year comparison to draw yet — the read above is this campaign only.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 58, top 26% of the 50 central midfielders in the Ligue 2. At 19 Jamali is still climbing toward his ceiling, and a market index of 17.3 reflects that trajectory.

Read the appearance count in context: Jamali missed 3 games through injury (knee) out of roughly 34 this season. The 15 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.

Clean sheets

2.1 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 3 clean sheets across 15 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (3rd of 18) the side controls more games, so the defensive load is lighter — the value sits as much in composure and ball progression as in raw volume.

Strengths

  • Ceiling. High potential at just 19 — room to grow into a bigger role.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 21.5% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.

Outlook

With a Rating of 57.7, Jamali carries the 13th-highest potential of the central midfielders in the Ligue 2 of 50 — though on just 15 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.1 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). At 19 the trajectory points up — potential sits near its ceiling (99/100) and market value should climb as minutes and output follow. With this floor already at 19, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.
