Project playerGoalkeeper

D. Matijaš is a 26-year-old goalkeeper at HNK Gorica, rated 35.1 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 57th of 191 on scout potential in the HNL. In his prime years, he has been an ever-present this season (97.7% of available minutes). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Matijaš.

Judged on this season alone, Matijaš graded 15 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 8th of 15 of the 15 goalkeepers in the HNL, on 8 clean sheets across 36 appearances.

Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 4 → 15). Over the 4 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2023/24.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 35, top 20% of the 15 goalkeepers in the HNL. At 26 Matijaš is in his prime years, and a market index of 4.8 reflects that trajectory.

8 clean sheets in 36 appearances (22% of games). Keeping that many behind a relegation-threatened side (8th of 10) — a side that concedes more — points to a busy, productive season between the posts.

Strengths

  • Availability. On the pitch for 97.7% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.

Watch points

  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 35.1, Matijaš carries the 3rd-highest potential of the goalkeepers in the HNL (top 20%), and he is posting that for a relegation-threatened side (HNK Gorica finished 8th of 10) — individual numbers are harder to earn on a struggling team, so his underlying level likely sits a touch above the ranking. A near ever-present keeper carrying the gloves this season. In the prime window — at or near peak market value, so the next two seasons are the ones to cash in or build around.
