Clean sheets

2.79 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 2 clean sheets across 15 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (6th of 18) the side controls more games, so the defensive load is lighter — the value sits as much in composure and ball progression as in raw volume. Going forward he chipped in 2 goals and 2 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.31 goal involvements per 90, useful for a full-back.
Ceiling. High potential at just 22 — room to grow into a bigger role.

Watch points

Game time. Only 38% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.

Outlook

Rated 54.3 overall — a solid contributor and squad regular. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.79 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90), with a bit more on the ball than most in the role. Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 1.9×) with the best seasons likely ahead. With this floor already at 22, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.

Market valueRating

Solid = now · dashed = projected

The gold line is market value — an index (not €) blending rating, age and league. It climbs through the early 20s, peaks around ages 23–27 (~16), then tapers with age. At 22, Petkov sits on 15.2, still climbing toward its peak. The blue line is Petkov's projected Rating — 54.3 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.
