Outlook

With a Rating of 13.3, Kraev carries the 31st-highest potential of the attacking midfielders in the A-League of 40, and he is posting that for a relegation-threatened side (Western Sydney Wanderers finished 12th of 12) — individual numbers are harder to earn on a struggling team, so his underlying level likely sits a touch above the ranking. In the final third he profiles as a work-in-progress on end product (0.32 goal contributions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.1× now → 0.8× projected in three years).

Market valueRating

Solid = now · dashed = projected

The gold line is market value — an index (not €) blending rating, age and league. It climbs through the early 20s, peaks around ages 22–27 (~1), then tapers with age. At 29, Kraev sits on 0.4, past its peak and easing. The blue line is Kraev's projected Rating — 13.3 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.
