Project playerFull-back

A. Makarchuk is a 30-year-old full-back at FC Sochi, rated 15 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 26th of 29 on scout potential in the First League. An experienced operator, he has been a regular starter this season (61.3% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 2.09 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Makarchuk.

Judged on this season alone, Makarchuk graded 7 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 5th of 5 of the 5 full-backs in the First League, on 1 clean sheet and 2.085 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 19 → 7). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2020/21.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 15, 4th of 5 of the 5 full-backs in the First League. At 30 Makarchuk is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 0.5 reflects that trajectory.

Clean sheets

2.09 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 1 clean sheet across 18 appearances. Behind a title-challenging side (2nd of 18) 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 0 goals and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Availability. On the pitch for 61.3% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.

Watch points

  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 15, Makarchuk carries the 4th-highest potential of the full-backs in the First League of 5. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.09 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1× now → 0.7× projected in three years).
