Watch points

Game time. Only 40.9% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
Output. 0.08 contributions per 90 is light for an attacking role — end product needs to climb.
Age curve. At 31, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 0.7, Sibusiso carries the 27th-highest potential of the centre-forwards in the Premier Soccer League of 35 — though on just 0 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. In the final third he profiles as a work-in-progress on end product (0.08 goal contributions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.9× and falling).

Market valueRating

Solid = now · dashed = projected

The gold line is market value — an index (not €) blending rating, age and league. It climbs through the early 20s, peaks around ages 17–37 (~0), then tapers with age. At 31, Sibusiso sits on 0, at or near its peak. The blue line is Sibusiso's projected Rating — 0.7 today — recomputed at each age, so it follows the same rise-and-fall as a career matures and declines. Solid = up to today; dashed = projected.
