5 clean sheets in 28 appearances (18% of games). Playing behind a title-challenging side (1st of 12) means a more protected goal, so the read is about command and distribution as much as raw shut-outs.

Strengths

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

Watch points

  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 19.9, Delianov carries the 2nd-highest potential of the goalkeepers in the A-League (top 16%). A near ever-present keeper carrying the gloves this season. In the prime window — at or near peak market value, so the next two seasons are the ones to cash in or build around.
