S. Volkov is a 23-year-old full-back at FC Sochi, rated 30.9 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 79th of 274 in the Premier League. An emerging talent, he has been a regular starter this season (65.5% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 2.04 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Volkov.
Judged on this season alone, Volkov graded 14 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 39th of 47 of the 47 full-backs in the Premier League, on 4 clean sheets and 2.036 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 4 → 14). Over the 5 seasons on record his form has held fairly steady, peaking in 2022/23.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 31, top 35% of the 47 full-backs in the Premier League. At 23 Volkov is still climbing toward his ceiling, and a market index of 9.3 reflects that trajectory.
Past his 2022/23 peak — the recent trend is downward, so buyers are paying for what's left, not what was.
2.04 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 4 clean sheets across 26 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 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.
With a Rating of 30.9, Volkov carries the 16th-highest potential of the full-backs in the Premier League (top 35%), 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 moderate defensive volume (2.04 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). 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 (~9), then tapers with age. At 23, Volkov sits on 9.3, at or near its peak. The blue line is Volkov's projected Rating — 30.9 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.
