On the Nordic desk, a 1.86 m winger taking minutes in the Netherlands two seasons running is a data point worth noting. I have followed Juho Talvitie since the Heracles loan; this file was updated after the NAC Breda season closed and the player returned to Lommel.

Strengths and Weaknesses
| Strengths | Weaknesses |
|---|---|
| Carrying ability at 1.86 m — an uncommon combination | Low finishing conversion (3 goals in 1,395 minutes) |
| NAC Breda’s leading creator of big chances | Change-of-direction cost |
| Two Eredivisie seasons of top-flight minutes | Both seasons at bottom-half sides — no top-half context tested |
| Senior international door open (2 caps at 21) | League level dropped on returning to the parent club |
Development Areas
The first line is clear: finishing. The gap between big-chance creation and his own goal count shows decision quality in the final third has to improve.
The second is frequency of entries into the box. He uses the outside corridor well, but the number of inside-cutting actions is limited, which ties total threat production to a single channel.
The third is league level. Playing in Belgium in 2026-27 may guarantee minutes; whether the development curve holds rather than regresses from the Eredivisie standard is the item to measure.
Career Projection
A twenty-one-year-old winger with two senior caps and two seasons of top-flight minutes. As it stands, the file calls for a stability discussion rather than a ceiling discussion: he has been a Lommel player since 2021 yet has never completed a settled season at his parent club, spending two years out on loan. Being named the Finnish FA’s young player of the year in 2021 shows the early potential was formally recorded; the decisive data from here is whether a full season at the parent club lifts his goal contribution.
Contract Status
The player has been on Lommel SK’s books since 2021; after loans at Heracles Almelo in 2024-25 and NAC Breda in 2025-26 he returned to the parent club and wears the number 7 shirt. Because the contract end date appears inconsistently across open sources, no date is given in this report; the verified fact is that he is in the Lommel squad today.
Two seasons of top-flight minutes are evidenced, but goal contribution trails creation volume, and no level comparison is yet possible after the return to the parent club.
The file will be reassessed once a full season in Belgium and 8+ goal contributions are on record.
