Output in context · Minnesota United FC finished 4th of 15 · an upper-table side
5.05 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — high defensive volume, with 7 clean sheets across 34 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (4th of 15) 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 10 goals and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Availability. On the pitch for 66.3% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
- Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.45 goal involvements per 90, useful for a full-back.
- Defensive volume. 5.05 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.
Watch points
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
With a Rating of 40.2, Markanich carries the 24th-highest potential of the full-backs in the Major League Soccer (top 24%). Defensively he reads as high defensive volume (5.05 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). In the prime window — at or near peak market value, so the next two seasons are the ones to cash in or build around.
