Output in context · Dinamo Zagreb finished 1st of 10 · a title-challenging side
2.11 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 13 clean sheets across 30 appearances. Behind a title-challenging side (1st of 10) 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. Going forward he chipped in 2 goals and 3 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Availability. On the pitch for 81.5% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
- Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.17 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central defender.
Watch points
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
With a Rating of 27.1, McKenna carries the 17th-highest potential of the centre-backs in the HNL of 31. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.11 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.1× now → 0.8× projected in three years).
