On long-term talent our Rating reads 73, 28th of 51 of the 51 attacking midfielders in the Ligue 1. At 25 Tsitaishvili is in his prime years, and a market index of 42.7 reflects that trajectory.
Below his 2024/25 peak but holding a solid level — the platform for a return is there.
Output in context · Metz finished 18th of 18 · a relegation-threatened side
1.28 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume, with 6 clean sheets across 33 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (18th of 18) 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 3 goals and 2 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Availability. On the pitch for 80.3% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
- Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.18 goal involvements per 90, useful for a full-back.
Watch points
- Defensive numbers. Modest 1.28 defensive actions per 90 for the position.
Outlook
With a Rating of 73.3, Tsitaishvili carries the 28th-highest potential of the attacking midfielders in the Ligue 1 of 51, and he is posting that for a relegation-threatened side (Metz finished 18th of 18) — 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 light defensive volume (1.28 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.
