Scout report
M. Kononov is a 23-year-old full-back at SK Poltava, rated 33 overall by Field Insider's model. An emerging talent, he has been a fringe squad member this season (33.2% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 2.01 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Kononov.
On the season, Kononov graded 5 for current form (age-blind), on 1 clean sheet and 2.009 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 4 → 5). Across the 3 seasons we hold, it's his best return yet.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 33. At 23 Kononov is still climbing toward his ceiling, and a market index of 5.2 reflects that trajectory.
Output in context · SK Poltava finished 16th of 16 · a relegation-threatened side
2.01 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 1 clean sheet across 25 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (16th of 16) is harder than the bare numbers suggest: a back line under more pressure has to defend more often and protects fewer leads, so the volume — and any clean sheets — carry real weight.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 33.2% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
Rated 33 overall — below regular-starter level. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.01 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead.
