Sam Kersten
Center Back · Heerenveen · season-by-season, by competition, and every match.
Past his 2023/24 peak — the recent trend is downward, so buyers are paying for what's left, not what was.
The record covers 6 seasons (2020/21–2025/26) across 2 clubs — 166 appearances with 7 goal contributions from defence.
His best campaign on record is 2023/24 at PEC Zwolle — Season rating 77, 0 goals and 4 assists in 34 games. 2023/24 was the leap — Season rating up 59 points at PEC Zwolle. Form has slipped 54 Season points across his last 3 full seasons. The gap to his peak is 54 Season points.
A streaky profile — form has swung hard between campaigns (spread of ±21 points), so the peak and the trough are far apart. Made the jump to a higher division in 2023/24 (Eredivisie) and kept playing — 34 games that season.
