Scout report
S. Essende is a 28-year-old centre-forward at BSC Young Boys, rated 28.1 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 176th of 233 on scout potential in the Super League. An experienced operator, he has been a fringe squad member this season (25% of available minutes). He brings 0.53 goal contributions per 90 (0.42 goals, 0.11 assists). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Essende.
Judged on this season alone, Essende graded 14 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 24th of 31 of the 31 centre-forwards in the Super League, on 4 goals and 1 assist in 13 appearances (0.526 involvements per 90).
Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 34 → 14). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2023/24.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 28, 22nd of 31 of the 31 centre-forwards in the Super League. At 28 Essende is in his prime years, and a market index of 3.3 reflects that trajectory.
Past his 2023/24 peak — the recent trend is downward, so buyers are paying for what's left, not what was.
Output in context · BSC Young Boys finished 6th of 12 · a mid-table side
4 goals in 13 appearances (0.31 per game) — light end product the role wants to see climb. Add 1 assist for 5 goal contributions in all.
Strengths
- Final-third output. 0.53 goal contributions per 90 (0.42 goals, 0.11 assists) — productive for the role.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 25% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
With a Rating of 28.1, Essende carries the 22nd-highest potential of the centre-forwards in the Super League of 31 — though on just 13 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. In the final third he profiles as a productive contributor (0.53 goal contributions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.2× now → 0.9× projected in three years).
