On long-term talent our Rating reads 16, 24th of 25 of the 25 goalkeepers in the Ekstraklasa. At 34 Plach is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 1.2 reflects that trajectory.

6 clean sheets in 24 appearances (25% of games).

Strengths

  • Availability. On the pitch for 100% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.

Watch points

  • Age curve. At 34, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 16, Plach carries the 24th-highest potential of the goalkeepers in the Ekstraklasa of 25. A near ever-present keeper carrying the gloves this season. Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.6× and falling).
