Scout report
R. Goncharenko is a 32-year-old central defender at Veres Rivne, enjoying a standout season — 0 goals and 0 assists in 19 appearances, a Season grade of 13, top 78% of Premier League centre-backs. On long-term scout potential he's rated 12.8, ranking 145th of 157 in the Premier League. A seasoned veteran, he has been a fringe squad member (27.9% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 2.99 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Goncharenko.
Judged on this season alone, Goncharenko graded 13 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 21st of 27 of the 27 centre-backs in the Premier League, on 3 clean sheets and 2.988 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 14 → 13). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2020/21.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 13, 25th of 27 of the 27 centre-backs in the Premier League. At 32 Goncharenko is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 1.4 reflects that trajectory.
Past his 2020/21 peak — the recent trend is downward, so buyers are paying for what's left, not what was.
Output in context · Veres Rivne finished 11th of 16 · a lower-table side
2.99 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 3 clean sheets across 19 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (11th 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 27.9% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
- Age curve. At 32, 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 12.8, Goncharenko carries the 25th-highest potential of the centre-backs in the Premier League of 27 — though on just 19 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.99 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.8× and falling).
