We hold a single season for Velichkov, so there's no year-on-year comparison to draw yet — the read above is this campaign only.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 27, top 37% of the 22 goalkeepers in the First League. At 26 Velichkov is in his prime years, and a market index of 3.1 reflects that trajectory.
4 clean sheets in 28 appearances (14% of games). Keeping that many behind a lower-table side (11th of 16) — a side that concedes more — points to a busy, productive season between the posts.
With a Rating of 27.1, Velichkov carries the 8th-highest potential of the goalkeepers in the First League (top 37%), and he is posting that for a lower-table side (Lokomotiv Sofia finished 11th of 16) — individual numbers are harder to earn on a struggling team, so his underlying level likely sits a touch above the ranking. A rotation minutes 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.

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 (~3), then tapers with age. At 26, Velichkov sits on 3.1, at or near its peak. The blue line is Velichkov's projected Rating — 27.1 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.
