Scout report

Experienced headCentral midfielder

K. Acosta is a 31-year-old central midfielder at Pogon Szczecin, enjoying a standout season — 1 goals and 1 assists in 11 appearances, a Season grade of 24, top 52% of Ekstraklasa central midfielders. On long-term scout potential he's rated 18.7, ranking 263rd of 332 in the Ekstraklasa. A seasoned veteran, he has been a rotation option (51.6% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 2.74 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Acosta.

Judged on this season alone, Acosta graded 24 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 35th of 67 of the 67 central midfielders in the Ekstraklasa, on 1 goal, 1 assist and 2.738 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 35 → 24). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2022/23.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 19, 57th of 67 of the 67 central midfielders in the Ekstraklasa. At 31 Acosta is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 2 reflects that trajectory.

Clean sheets

2.74 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 2 clean sheets across 11 appearances. Going forward he chipped in 1 goal and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.23 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central midfielder.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 51.6% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Age curve. At 31, 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 18.7, Acosta carries the 57th-highest potential of the central midfielders in the Ekstraklasa of 67 — though on just 11 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.74 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.9× and falling).
