Scout report

Squad depthCentral midfielder

A. Zakharyan is a 23-year-old central midfielder at Real Sociedad, rated 66.8 overall by Field Insider's model. An emerging talent, he has been a fringe squad member this season (13.1% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 2.41 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Zakharyan.

On the season, Zakharyan graded 3 for current form (age-blind), on 0 goals, 0 assists and 2.411 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 3 → 3). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2021/22.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 67. At 23 Zakharyan is still climbing toward his ceiling, and a market index of 73.7 reflects that trajectory.

Read the appearance count in context: Zakharyan missed 5 games through injury (calf) out of roughly 38 this season. The 17 he did play is a solid return on the time he was fit, and his ratings are weighted toward those games rather than the ones he sat out injured.

Clean sheets

2.41 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume across 17 appearances.

Strengths

  • Pedigree. Performing in a top-tier setting (team strength 91.4/100).

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 13.1% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.

Outlook

Rated 66.8 overall — a strong, regular top-tier starter. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.41 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead. With this floor already at 23, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.
