2 goals in 10 appearances (0.2 per game) — light end product the role wants to see climb.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 43% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Output. 0.27 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 34.5, Minchev carries the 3rd-highest potential of the centre-forwards in the Ekstraklasa of 19 — though on just 10 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. In the final third he profiles as a work-in-progress on end product (0.27 goal contributions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead.
