On long-term talent our Rating reads 2, top 17% of the 36 central midfielders in the Premier Soccer League. At 0 Zikhali is still climbing toward his ceiling, and a market index of 0 reflects that trajectory.
3.55 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 3 clean sheets across 13 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (4th of 16) the side controls more games, so the defensive load is lighter — the value sits as much in composure and ball progression as in raw volume. Going forward he chipped in 1 goal and 0 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
With a Rating of 1.7, Zikhali carries the 6th-highest potential of the central midfielders in the Premier Soccer League of 36 — though on just 13 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample.

The gold line is market value — an index (not €) blending rating, age and league. It climbs through the early 20s, peaks around ages 17–37 (~0), then tapers with age. At 0, Zikhali sits on 0, still climbing toward its peak. The blue line is Zikhali's projected Rating — 1.7 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.
