Kouassi's 2026/27 season, read from the numbers

In 2026/27, K. Kouassi was used in rotation for Lorient in the Ligue 1: 5 appearances and 450 minutes, averaging 90 minutes per outing. He grades out best for match rating — 247th of 978 midfielders and inside the top 25%.

Per 90 minutes that is 1.6 key passes per 90, 0.2 assists per 90 and 1.6 ball recoveries per 90 — the rate profile behind Kouassi's totals. Kouassi played 202 passes at 82% accuracy — 40.4 per 90, which is the volume that decides whether a side builds through him or around him.

The profile is lopsided rather than complete: measured against midfielders, Kouassi sits in the top 5% for assists but only the top 41% for tackling volume. Set against Kouassi's own record, 2026/27 reads differently: he is playing far less than he once did — 450 minutes against 2612 at his peak; his average match rating has slipped from 6.91 to 6.71 since 2025/26.
