Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Athanasiou.

Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 22 → 31). Across the 6 seasons we hold, it's his best return yet.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 41, top 8% of the 25 defensive midfielders in the Super League 1. At 25 Athanasiou is in his prime years, and a market index of 18.1 reflects that trajectory.
Below his 2024/25 peak but holding a solid level — the platform for a return is there.
2.1 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 3 clean sheets across 14 appearances. Going forward he chipped in 0 goals and 3 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
With a Rating of 41.2, Athanasiou carries the 2nd-highest potential of the defensive midfielders in the Super League 1 of 25 — though on just 14 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.1 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90), with a bit more on the ball than most in the role. Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead.

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 (~18), then tapers with age. At 25, Athanasiou sits on 18.1, at or near its peak. The blue line is Athanasiou's projected Rating — 41.2 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.
