Clean sheets

4.63 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 2 clean sheets across 12 appearances. Behind a title-challenging side (2nd 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.

Defensive volume. 4.63 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Outlook

Rated 20.8 overall — below regular-starter level. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (4.63 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.1× now → 0.8× projected in three years).

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 (~3), then tapers with age. At 29, Sáček sits on 1.6, past its peak and easing. The blue line is Sáček's projected Rating — 20.8 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.
