We hold a single season for Elbel, so there's no year-on-year comparison to draw yet — the read above is this campaign only.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 1, 21st of 45 of the 45 centre-backs in the Czech Liga. At 26 Elbel is in his prime years, and a market index of 0 reflects that trajectory.
2.44 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 3 clean sheets across 11 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (4th of 6) 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.
With a Rating of 1.3, Elbel carries the 21st-highest potential of the centre-backs in the Czech Liga of 45 — though on just 11 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.44 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). In the prime window — at or near peak market value, so the next two seasons are the ones to cash in or build around.
Generated from Field Insider's rating model · AI-written analysis to follow.
The gold line is market value — an index (not €) blending rating, age and league. It climbs through the early 20s, peaks around ages 17–37 (~0), then tapers with age. At 26, Elbel sits on 0, at or near its peak. The blue line is Elbel's projected Rating — 1.3 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.
