G. Kostadinov is a 35-year-old defensive midfielder at Levski Sofia, rated 7.5 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 230th of 241 in the First League. A seasoned veteran, he has been a fringe squad member this season (25.6% of available minutes). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Kostadinov.
Judged on this season alone, Kostadinov graded 6 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 27th of 31 of the 31 defensive midfielders in the First League, on 1 goal, 0 assists and 0.976 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 18 → 6). Over the 3 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2021/22.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 8, 31st of 31 of the 31 defensive midfielders in the First League. At 35 Kostadinov is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 0.7 reflects that trajectory.
Past his 2021/22 peak — the recent trend is downward, so buyers are paying for what's left, not what was.
0.98 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume, with 4 clean sheets across 28 appearances. Behind a title-challenging side (1st 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 1 goal and 0 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
With a Rating of 7.5, Kostadinov carries the 31st-highest potential of the defensive midfielders in the First League of 31 — though on just 28 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as light defensive volume (0.98 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.6× and falling).

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 (~2), then tapers with age. At 35, Kostadinov sits on 0.7, past its peak and easing. The blue line is Kostadinov's projected Rating — 7.5 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.
