Kabić is a 22-year-old defensive midfielder at OFK Beograd, rated 36.9 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 112th of 330 on scout potential in the Super Liga and 2069th of 2878 U-23 players tracked. An emerging talent, he has been a fringe squad member this season (34.6% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 2.5 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Kabić.

Judged on this season alone, Kabić graded 16 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 19th of 29 of the 29 defensive midfielders in the Super Liga, on 2 goals, 1 assist and 2.502 defensive actions per 90.

We hold a single season for Kabić, so there's no year-on-year comparison to draw yet — the read above is this campaign only.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 37, top 25% of the 29 defensive midfielders in the Super Liga. At 22 Kabić is still climbing toward his ceiling, and a market index of 5.6 reflects that trajectory.

Clean sheets

2.5 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 4 clean sheets across 26 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (6th of 8) is harder than the bare numbers suggest: a back line under more pressure has to defend more often and protects fewer leads, so the volume — and any clean sheets — carry real weight. Going forward he chipped in 2 goals 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 defensive midfielder.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 34.6% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 36.9, Kabić carries the 7th-highest potential of the defensive midfielders in the Super Liga (top 25%), and he is posting that for a relegation-threatened side (OFK Beograd finished 6th of 8) — individual numbers are harder to earn on a struggling team, so his underlying level likely sits a touch above the ranking. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.5 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 1.9×) with the best seasons likely ahead.
