Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Magashy.

Judged on this season alone, Magashy graded 17 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 31st of 39 of the 39 central midfielders in the Allsvenskan, on 1 goal, 1 assist and 2.479 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 13 → 17). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has trended upward, peaking in 2022/23.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 23, 30th of 39 of the 39 central midfielders in the Allsvenskan. At 28 Magashy is in his prime years, and a market index of 2.1 reflects that trajectory.

Clean sheets

2.48 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 1 clean sheet across 17 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (13th of 16) 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 1 goal and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.25 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central midfielder.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 36.7% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 23.4, Magashy carries the 30th-highest potential of the central midfielders in the Allsvenskan of 39 — though on just 17 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.48 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.2× now → 0.9× projected in three years).
