Clean sheets

1.06 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume, with 5 clean sheets across 22 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (5th 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 2 goals and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.32 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central midfielder.

Watch points

Game time. Only 31.6% 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 36.1, Zabërgja carries the 9th-highest potential of the central midfielders in the Premier League of 51 — though on just 22 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as light defensive volume (1.06 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead.

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 (~6), then tapers with age. At 25, Zabërgja sits on 5.7, at or near its peak. The blue line is Zabërgja's projected Rating — 36.1 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.
