A. Chernikov is a 26-year-old defensive midfielder at FC Krasnodar, rated 30.2 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 88th of 275 in the Russia tier 1. In his prime years, he has been a regular starter this season (65.6% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 2.77 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Chernikov.
Judged on this season alone, Chernikov graded 20 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 21st of 27 of the 27 defensive midfielders in the Russia tier 1, on 1 goal, 0 assists and 2.768 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 26 → 20). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has trended upward, peaking in 2021/22.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 30, 12th of 27 of the 27 defensive midfielders in the Russia tier 1. At 26 Chernikov is in his prime years, and a market index of 9.1 reflects that trajectory.
Past his 2021/22 peak — the recent trend is downward, so buyers are paying for what's left, not what was.
2.77 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 8 clean sheets across 23 appearances. Behind a title-challenging side (2nd of 16) 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. Going forward he chipped in 1 goal and 0 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
With a Rating of 30.2, Chernikov carries the 12th-highest potential of the defensive midfielders in the Russia tier 1 of 27. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.77 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.

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 (~9), then tapers with age. At 26, Chernikov sits on 9.1, at or near its peak. The blue line is Chernikov's projected Rating — 30.2 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.
