V. Aleksandrov is a 24-year-old central defender at Nizhny Novgorod, rated 28.8 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 127th of 274 on scout potential in the Premier League. An emerging talent, he has been a rotation option this season (49.3% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 3.51 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Aleksandrov.

Judged on this season alone, Aleksandrov graded 12 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 39th of 48 of the 48 centre-backs in the Premier League, on 2 clean sheets and 3.514 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 20 → 12). Over the 5 seasons on record his form has trended upward, peaking in 2023/24.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 29, top 34% of the 48 centre-backs in the Premier League. At 24 Aleksandrov is in his prime years, and a market index of 3.1 reflects that trajectory.

Clean sheets

3.51 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 2 clean sheets across 19 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (15th of 16) 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.

Strengths

  • Defensive volume. 3.51 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 49.3% 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 28.8, Aleksandrov carries the 16th-highest potential of the centre-backs in the Premier League (top 34%), 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. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (3.51 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead.
