Experienced headCentral midfielder

G. Zahid is a 32-year-old central midfielder at Valerenga, rated 11.1 overall by Field Insider's model. A seasoned veteran, he has been a fringe squad member this season (8.2% of available minutes). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Zahid.

On the season, Zahid graded 1 for current form (age-blind), on 0 goals, 0 assists and 0.612 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 2 → 1). Over the 3 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2022/23.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 11. At 32 Zahid is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 0.8 reflects that trajectory.

Clean sheets

0.61 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume across 4 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (11th of 16) 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.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 8.2% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Age curve. At 32, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

Rated 11.1 overall — below regular-starter level. Defensively he reads as light defensive volume (0.61 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.8× and falling).
