Scout report
R. Kongolo is a 28-year-old central midfielder at Emmen, rated 37.9 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 328th of 376 on scout potential in the Eerste Divisie. An experienced operator, he has been a regular starter this season (66.8% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 3.31 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Kongolo.
Judged on this season alone, Kongolo graded 30 — a strong campaign that ranks top 26% of the 62 central midfielders in the Eerste Divisie, on 2 goals, 1 assist and 3.31 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 10 → 30). Over the 5 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2020/21.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 38, 57th of 62 of the 62 central midfielders in the Eerste Divisie. At 28 Kongolo is in his prime years, and a market index of 8.8 reflects that trajectory.
Below his 2020/21 peak but holding a solid level — the platform for a return is there.
Output in context · Emmen finished 14th of 20 · a lower-table side
3.31 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 4 clean sheets across 34 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (14th of 20) 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. Going forward he chipped in 2 goals and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Availability. On the pitch for 66.8% 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 37.9, Kongolo carries the 57th-highest potential of the central midfielders in the Eerste Divisie of 62, and he is posting that for a lower-table side (Emmen finished 14th of 20) — individual numbers are harder to earn on a struggling team, so his underlying level likely sits a touch above the ranking. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (3.31 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.2× now → 0.9× projected in three years).
