Clean sheets

3.33 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 6 clean sheets across 24 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (3rd of 10) 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 0 goals and 5 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.24 goal involvements per 90, useful for a defensive midfielder.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 57.6% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 24.7, Maglica carries the 24th-highest potential of the defensive midfielders in the HNL of 32. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (3.33 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90), with a bit more on the ball than most in the role. Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.1× now → 0.8× projected in three years).
