Clean sheets

2.44 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 10 clean sheets across 27 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (5th of 6) 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 1 goal and 3 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Availability. On the pitch for 72.6% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
  • Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.16 goal involvements per 90, useful for a full-back.

Watch points

  • 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 0.6, Novák carries the 38th-highest potential of the full-backs in the Czech Liga of 50, and he is posting that for a relegation-threatened side (FK Jablonec finished 5th of 6) — 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 moderate defensive volume (2.44 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.6× and falling).
