S. Knežević is a 29-year-old central defender at FC Luzern, rated 26.8 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 157th of 202 on scout potential in the Super League. An experienced operator, he has been a rotation option this season (56.9% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 3.61 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Knežević.

Judged on this season alone, Knežević graded 18 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 19th of 34 of the 34 centre-backs in the Super League, on 4 clean sheets and 3.609 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 8 → 18). Over the 4 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2021/22.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 27, 24th of 34 of the 34 centre-backs in the Super League. At 29 Knežević is in his prime years, and a market index of 3.3 reflects that trajectory.

Clean sheets

3.61 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 4 clean sheets across 24 appearances.

Strengths

  • Defensive volume. 3.61 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 56.9% 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 26.8, Knežević carries the 24th-highest potential of the centre-backs in the Super League of 34. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (3.61 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.1× now → 0.8× projected in three years).
