Clean sheets

1.62 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume, with 1 clean sheet across 19 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (3rd of 18) 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 3 goals and 2 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.9 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central midfielder.
Creativity. 0.36 assists per 90 — a genuine creative outlet.

Watch points

Game time. Only 16.3% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.

Outlook

Rated 56.8 overall — a solid contributor and squad regular. Defensively he reads as light defensive volume (1.62 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90), with a bit more on the ball than most in the role. In the prime window — at or near peak market value, so the next two seasons are the ones to cash in or build around.

The gold line is market value — an index (not €) blending rating, age and league. It climbs through the early 20s, peaks around age 26 (~26), then tapers with age. At 26, Kachati sits on 26.2, at or near its peak. The blue line is Kachati's projected Rating — 56.8 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.
