Scout report
Y. Zheleznov is a 23-year-old central midfielder at Akron, rated 26.1 overall by Field Insider's model. An emerging talent, he has been a fringe squad member this season (12.5% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 1 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Zheleznov.
On the season, Zheleznov graded 1 for current form (age-blind), on 0 goals, 0 assists and 1 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 10 → 1). Over the 5 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2021/22.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 26. At 23 Zheleznov is still climbing toward his ceiling, and a market index of 2.8 reflects that trajectory.
Read the appearance count in context: Zheleznov missed 4 games through injury (outer ligament problems) out of roughly 32 this season. The 2 he did play is a solid return on the time he was fit, and his ratings are weighted toward those games rather than the ones he sat out injured.
Below his 2021/22 peak but holding a solid level — the platform for a return is there.
Output in context · Akron finished 13th of 16 · a lower-table side
1 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume across 2 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (13th of 16) 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.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 12.5% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
Rated 26.1 overall — below regular-starter level. Defensively he reads as light defensive volume (1 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead.
