We hold a single season for Piven, so there's no year-on-year comparison to draw yet — the read above is this campaign only.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 20, 23rd of 26 of the 26 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 5.1 reflects that trajectory.
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.
With a Rating of 20.2, Piven carries the 23rd-highest potential of the centre-backs in the Ligat Ha'al of 26, 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).

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 (~10), then tapers with age. At 30, Piven sits on 5.1, past its peak and easing. The blue line is Piven's projected Rating — 20.2 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.
