  • Availability. On the pitch for 61% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
  • Defensive volume. 4.7 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

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

Outlook

With a Rating of 33, Tsenov carries the 6th-highest potential of the centre-backs in the Premier League of 40 — though on just 10 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (4.7 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead.
