A seasoned veteran, he has been a fringe squad member this season (18.9% of available minutes). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Lyubenov.
Judged on this season alone, Lyubenov graded 5 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 21st of 21 of the 21 goalkeepers in the First League, on 2 clean sheets across 9 appearances.
We hold a single season for Lyubenov, so there's no year-on-year comparison to draw yet — the read above is this campaign only.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 12, 17th of 21 of the 21 goalkeepers in the First League. At 31 Lyubenov is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 1.7 reflects that trajectory.
2 clean sheets in 9 appearances (22% of games). Keeping that many behind a lower-table side (11th of 16) — a side that concedes more — points to a busy, productive season between the posts.
With a Rating of 12.1, Lyubenov carries the 17th-highest potential of the goalkeepers in the First League of 21 — though on just 9 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. A limited game time keeper carrying the gloves this season. Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.9× and falling).
Generated from Field Insider's rating model · AI-written analysis to follow.
The gold line is market value — an index (not €) blending rating, age and league. It climbs through the early 20s, peaks around ages 23–27 (~4), then tapers with age. At 31, Lyubenov sits on 1.7, past its peak and easing. The blue line is Lyubenov's projected Rating — 12.1 today — recomputed at each age, so it follows the same rise-and-fall as a career matures and declines. Solid = up to today; dashed = projected.
