Project playerAttacking midfielder

K. Kuchaev is a 28-year-old attacking midfielder at FC Rostov, rated 22.8 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 68th of 104 on scout potential in the Premier League. An experienced operator, he has been a regular starter this season (62.3% of available minutes). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Kuchaev.

Judged on this season alone, Kuchaev graded 7 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 6th of 8 of the 8 attacking midfielders in the Premier League, on 1 goal and 0 assists in 24 appearances (0.054 involvements per 90).

Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 21 → 21). Over the 7 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2020/21.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 23, 8th of 8 of the 8 attacking midfielders in the Premier League. At 28 Kuchaev is in his prime years, and a market index of 1.5 reflects that trajectory.

1 goal in 24 appearances (0.04 per game) — light end product the role wants to see climb.

Strengths

  • Availability. On the pitch for 62.3% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
  • Defensive volume. 3.64 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

  • Output. 0.05 contributions per 90 is light for an attacking role — end product needs to climb.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 22.8, Kuchaev carries the 8th-highest potential of the attacking midfielders in the Premier League of 8. In the final third he profiles as a work-in-progress on end product (0.05 goal contributions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.2× now → 0.9× projected in three years).
