Judged on this season alone, Medvedev graded 8 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 13th of 21 of the 21 goalkeepers in the Premier League, on 5 clean sheets across 29 appearances.

Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 11 → 8). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has trended upward, peaking in 2024/25.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 18, 15th of 21 of the 21 goalkeepers in the Premier League. At 31 Medvedev is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 0.9 reflects that trajectory.

5 clean sheets in 29 appearances (17% of games). Keeping that many behind a relegation-threatened side (15th of 16) — a side that concedes more — points to a busy, productive season between the posts.

Availability. On the pitch for 96.7% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.

Watch points

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 18.4, Medvedev carries the 15th-highest potential of the goalkeepers in the Premier League of 21, and he is posting that for a relegation-threatened side (Nizhny Novgorod finished 15th of 16) — 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 (0.9× and falling).

Market valueRating

Solid = now · dashed = projected

The gold line is market value — an index (not €) blending rating, age and league. It climbs through the early 20s, peaks around ages 23–27 (~2), then tapers with age. At 31, Medvedev sits on 0.9, past its peak and easing. The blue line is Medvedev's projected Rating — 18.4 today — recomputed at each age, so it follows the same rise-and-fall as a career matures and declines. Solid = up to today; dashed = projected.
