Judged on this season alone, Veljković graded 19 — a solid campaign that ranks top 37% of the 57 centre-backs in the Super Liga, on 6 clean sheets and 2.071 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 12 → 19). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has held fairly steady, peaking in 2021/22.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 19, 36th of 57 of the 57 centre-backs in the Super Liga. At 31 Veljković is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 2.2 reflects that trajectory.
Below his 2021/22 peak but holding a solid level — the platform for a return is there.
Output in context · FK Crvena Zvezda finished 1st of 8 · a title-challenging side
2.07 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 6 clean sheets across 16 appearances. Behind a title-challenging side (1st of 8) 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: 0.27 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central defender.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 40.5% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
- Age curve. At 31, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
With a Rating of 18.8, Veljković carries the 36th-highest potential of the centre-backs in the Super Liga of 57. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.07 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.9× and falling).
