Scout report
W. Willumsson is a 27-year-old central midfielder at NEC Nijmegen, rated 43.4 overall by Field Insider's model. In his prime years, he has been a fringe squad member this season (6.3% of available minutes). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Willumsson.
On the season, Willumsson graded 0 for current form (age-blind), on 0 goals, 0 assists and 0 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 29 → 0). Over the 4 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2023/24.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 43. At 27 Willumsson is in his prime years, and a market index of 20 reflects that trajectory.
Read the appearance count in context: Willumsson missed 13 games through injury (injury, muscle) out of roughly 34 this season. The 4 he did play is a solid return on the time he was fit, and his ratings are weighted toward those games rather than the ones he sat out injured.
Past his 2023/24 peak — the recent trend is downward, so buyers are paying for what's left, not what was.
Output in context · NEC Nijmegen finished 3rd of 18 · an upper-table side
0 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume across 4 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (3rd of 18) the side controls more games, so the defensive load is lighter — the value sits as much in composure and ball progression as in raw volume.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 6.3% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
Rated 43.4 overall — developing / rotation level. Defensively he reads as light defensive volume (0 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). In the prime window — at or near peak market value, so the next two seasons are the ones to cash in or build around.
