Clean sheets

4.42 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 5 clean sheets across 25 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (4th of 12) 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 2 goals and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

Availability. On the pitch for 60.8% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.15 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central defender.
Defensive volume. 4.42 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

Rated 28.3 overall — below regular-starter level. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (4.42 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.1× now → 0.8× projected in three years).

Solid = now · dashed = projected

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 (~7), then tapers with age. At 29, Plavotić sits on 5, past its peak and easing. The blue line is Plavotić's projected Rating — 28.3 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.
