Scout report
K. Bistrović is a 28-year-old central midfielder at Akron, rated 19.5 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 213th of 274 on scout potential in the Premier League. An experienced operator, he has been a fringe squad member this season (31.8% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 1.89 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Bistrović.
Judged on this season alone, Bistrović graded 12 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 38th of 49 of the 49 central midfielders in the Premier League, on 1 goal, 1 assist and 1.886 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 10 → 12). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2023/24.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 20, 37th of 49 of the 49 central midfielders in the Premier League. At 28 Bistrović is in his prime years, and a market index of 1.3 reflects that trajectory.
Past his 2023/24 peak — the recent trend is downward, so buyers are paying for what's left, not what was.
Output in context · Akron finished 13th of 16 · a lower-table side
1.89 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume, with 1 clean sheet across 14 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (13th of 16) 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 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.21 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central midfielder.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 31.8% 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 19.5, Bistrović carries the 37th-highest potential of the central midfielders in the Premier League of 49 — though on just 14 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as light defensive volume (1.89 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.2× now → 0.9× projected in three years).
