Scout report
M. Ristić is a 30-year-old central midfielder at Celta Vigo, rated 33.7 overall by Field Insider's model. An experienced operator, he has been a fringe squad member this season (10.5% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 1.76 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Ristić.
On the season, Ristić graded 2 for current form (age-blind), on 0 goals, 0 assists and 1.758 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 4 → 2). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2021/22.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 34. At 30 Ristić is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 11.2 reflects that trajectory.
Read the appearance count in context: Ristić missed 11 games through injury (muscle, injury, back) out of roughly 38 this season. The 5 he did play is a solid return on the time he was fit, and his ratings are weighted toward those games rather than the ones he sat out injured.
Past his 2021/22 peak — the recent trend is downward, so buyers are paying for what's left, not what was.
Output in context · Celta Vigo finished 6th of 20 · an upper-table side
1.76 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume, with 1 clean sheet across 5 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (6th of 20) 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.
Strengths
- Pedigree. Performing in a top-tier setting (team strength 93.5/100).
Watch points
- Game time. Only 10.5% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
Rated 33.7 overall — below regular-starter level. Defensively he reads as light defensive volume (1.76 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1× now → 0.7× projected in three years).
