On long-term talent our Rating reads 8, 41st of 41 of the 41 central midfielders in the NB I. At 36 Balogh is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 0.5 reflects that trajectory.

Clean sheets

2.8 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 1 clean sheet across 16 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (3rd 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 1 goal and 2 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.4 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central midfielder.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 22.8% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Age curve. At 36, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 7.6, Balogh carries the 41st-highest potential of the central midfielders in the NB I of 41 — though on just 16 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.8 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90), with a bit more on the ball than most in the role. Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.6× and falling).
