Scout report
R. Magal is a 34-year-old central midfielder at FC Sochi, enjoying a standout season — 0 goals and 3 assists in 17 appearances, a Season grade of 15, top 63% of Premier League central midfielders. On long-term scout potential he's rated 7.9, ranking 271st of 274 in the Premier League. A seasoned veteran, he has been a rotation option (40.8% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 1.8 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Magal.
Judged on this season alone, Magal graded 15 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 31st of 49 of the 49 central midfielders in the Premier League, on 0 goals, 3 assists and 1.798 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 14 → 15). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2021/22.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 8, 49th of 49 of the 49 central midfielders in the Premier League. At 34 Magal is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 0.4 reflects that trajectory.
Past his 2021/22 peak — the recent trend is downward, so buyers are paying for what's left, not what was.
Output in context · FC Sochi finished 16th of 16 · a relegation-threatened side
1.8 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume, with 2 clean sheets across 17 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. Going forward he chipped in 0 goals and 3 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.25 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central midfielder.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 40.8% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
- Defensive numbers. Modest 1.8 defensive actions per 90 for the position.
- Age curve. At 34, 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 7.9, Magal carries the 49th-highest potential of the central midfielders in the Premier League of 49, and he is posting that for a relegation-threatened side (FC Sochi finished 16th of 16) — individual numbers are harder to earn on a struggling team, so his underlying level likely sits a touch above the ranking. Defensively he reads as light defensive volume (1.8 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90), with a bit more on the ball than most in the role. Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.6× and falling).
