Clean sheets

2.64 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 5 clean sheets across 21 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (6th of 8) 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 1 goal and 0 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 43.1% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 37.2, Šljivić carries the 21st-highest potential of the central midfielders in the Super Liga (top 37%), and he is posting that for a relegation-threatened side (OFK Beograd finished 6th of 8) — 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 moderate defensive volume (2.64 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). At 20 the trajectory points up — potential sits near its ceiling (98/100) and market value should climb as minutes and output follow.
