On long-term talent our Rating reads 20, 18th of 21 of the 21 centre-backs in the Ligat Ha'al. At 30 Piven is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 3 reflects that trajectory.
Output in context · Hapoel Tel Aviv finished 4th of 6 · a relegation-threatened side
4.22 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 5 clean sheets across 26 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (4th of 6) 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.
Strengths
- Defensive volume. 4.22 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 35.8% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
With a Rating of 20.2, Piven carries the 18th-highest potential of the centre-backs in the Ligat Ha'al of 21, and he is posting that for a relegation-threatened side (Hapoel Tel Aviv finished 4th of 6) — 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 solid defensive volume (4.22 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1× now → 0.7× projected in three years).
