N. Alip is a 26-year-old central defender at Zenit, rated 27.5 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 138th of 274 in the Premier League. In his prime years, he has been a fringe squad member this season (25.9% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 2.96 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Alip.
Judged on this season alone, Alip graded 17 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 30th of 48 of the 48 centre-backs in the Premier League, on 4 clean sheets and 2.961 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 26 → 17). Over the 5 seasons on record his form has trended upward, peaking in 2023/24.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 28, top 38% of the 48 centre-backs in the Premier League. At 26 Alip is in his prime years, and a market index of 3 reflects that trajectory.
Past his 2023/24 peak — the recent trend is downward, so buyers are paying for what's left, not what was.
2.96 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 4 clean sheets across 16 appearances. Behind a title-challenging side (1st of 16) 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 1 goal and 0 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
With a Rating of 27.5, Alip carries the 18th-highest potential of the centre-backs in the Premier League of 48 — though on just 16 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.96 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). In the prime window — at or near peak market value, so the next two seasons are the ones to cash in or build around.

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 26, Alip sits on 3, at or near its peak. The blue line is Alip's projected Rating — 27.5 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.
