Squad depthCreative Full-back

Ž. Kolmanič is a 26-year-old full-back at Austin, rated 32.9 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 290th of 491 on scout potential in the Major League Soccer. In his prime years, he has been a fringe squad member this season (26% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 1.99 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Kolmanič.

Judged on this season alone, Kolmanič graded 5 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 50th of 55 of the 55 full-backs in the Major League Soccer, on 1 clean sheet and 1.994 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 8 → 5). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2021/22.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 33, 34th of 55 of the 55 full-backs in the Major League Soccer. At 26 Kolmanič is in his prime years, and a market index of 6.2 reflects that trajectory.

Clean sheets

1.99 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume, with 1 clean sheet across 17 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (13th of 15) 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. Going forward he chipped in 0 goals and 2 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.28 goal involvements per 90, useful for a full-back.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 26% 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 32.9, Kolmanič carries the 34th-highest potential of the full-backs in the Major League Soccer of 55 — though on just 17 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as light defensive volume (1.99 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.
