Output in context · NK Slaven Belupo finished 7th of 10 · a lower-table side
4.03 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 4 clean sheets across 26 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (7th of 10) 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 2 goals and 3 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Availability. On the pitch for 69% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
- Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.2 goal involvements per 90, useful for a full-back.
- Defensive volume. 4.03 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 38.8, Krušelj carries the 5th-highest potential of the full-backs in the HNL (top 14%), and he is posting that for a lower-table side (NK Slaven Belupo finished 7th of 10) — individual numbers are harder to earn on a struggling team, so his underlying level likely sits a touch above the ranking. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (4.03 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). At 21 the trajectory points up — potential sits near its ceiling (97/100) and market value should climb as minutes and output follow.
