An emerging talent, he has been a regular starter this season (76.8% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 2.53 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Annan.

Judged on this season alone, Annan graded 39 — a solid campaign that ranks top 39% of the 47 full-backs in the Liga I, on 5 clean sheets and 2.532 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 1 → 39).

On long-term talent our Rating reads 64, top 3% of the 47 full-backs in the Liga I. At 24 Annan is in his prime years, and a market index of 7.9 reflects that trajectory.

Read the appearance count in context: Annan missed 3 games through injury (sprained ankle) out of roughly 40 this season. The 18 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

2.53 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 5 clean sheets across 18 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (5th of 6) is harder than the bare numbers suggest: a back line under more pressure has to defend more often and protects fewer leads, so the volume — and any clean sheets — carry real weight. Going forward he chipped in 0 goals and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Availability. On the pitch for 76.8% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.

Watch points

  • Few red flags. No obvious weaknesses in the current-season profile — consistency is the next test.

Outlook

With a Rating of 63.5, Annan carries the 1st-highest potential of the full-backs in the Liga I (top 3%), and he is posting that for a relegation-threatened side (Rapid finished 5th of 6) — individual numbers are harder to earn on a struggling team, so his underlying level likely sits a touch above the ranking. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.53 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead. Doing it for a lesser side, he profiles as a value buy for a club higher up the table.
