5 goals in 25 appearances (0.2 per game), a meaningful share of the load for a lower-table side. Add 2 assists for 7 goal contributions in all.

Strengths

  • Final-third output. 0.42 goal contributions per 90 (0.3 goals, 0.12 assists) — productive for the role.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 55.9% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Defensive numbers. Modest 1.97 defensive actions per 90 for the position.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 24.1, Oleynikov carries the 4th-highest potential of the attacking midfielders in the Premier League of 8, and he is posting that for a lower-table side (Krylia Sovetov finished 11th of 16) — individual numbers are harder to earn on a struggling team, so his underlying level likely sits a touch above the ranking. In the final third he profiles as a productive contributor (0.42 goal contributions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.2× now → 0.9× projected in three years).
