3 goals in 35 appearances (0.09 per game) — light end product the role wants to see climb.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 28% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Output. 0.3 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 32.5, Zlatev carries the 7th-highest potential of the attacking midfielders in the First League (top 16%). In the final third he profiles as a work-in-progress on end product (0.3 goal contributions per 90). At 21 the trajectory points up — potential sits near its ceiling (97/100) and market value should climb as minutes and output follow.
