Output in context · NK Osijek finished 9th of 10 · a relegation-threatened side
12 clean sheets in 30 appearances (40% of games). Keeping that many behind a relegation-threatened side (9th of 10) — a side that concedes more — points to a busy, productive season between the posts.
Strengths
- Availability. On the pitch for 81.1% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
Watch points
- 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
With a Rating of 17.4, Malenica carries the 10th-highest potential of the goalkeepers in the HNL of 15, and he is posting that for a relegation-threatened side (NK Osijek finished 9th of 10) — individual numbers are harder to earn on a struggling team, so his underlying level likely sits a touch above the ranking. A near ever-present keeper carrying the gloves this season. Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.8× and falling).
