Clean sheets

1.82 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume, with 8 clean sheets across 37 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (6th of 6) 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 5 goals and 2 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Availability. On the pitch for 85% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
  • Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.21 goal involvements per 90, useful for a defensive midfielder.
  • Ceiling. High potential at just 21 — room to grow into a bigger role.

Watch points

  • Defensive numbers. Modest 1.82 defensive actions per 90 for the position.

Outlook

With a Rating of 59.1, Koudou carries the 11th-highest potential of the defensive midfielders in the Jupiler Pro League (top 19%), and he is posting that for a relegation-threatened side (KV Mechelen finished 6th of 6) — 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 light defensive volume (1.82 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). At 21 the trajectory points up — potential sits near its ceiling (97/100) and market value should climb as minutes and output follow. With this floor already at 21, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.
