Domagoj Begonja has already shown that he is a creative force from the back in the 2025/26 HNL season. In just three appearances totalling 42 minutes, he has delivered a key pass per 90 minutes that is more than four times the defender baseline of 0.52. His involvement in build-up play is highlighted by 2.14 successful dribbles per 90, surpassing the baseline of 0.45, and his defensive work rate is evident with 4.29 tackles per 90 compared to the typical 1.69 for his position. While he has yet to score or register an assist, his contribution to chance creation is clear: a single key pass in 42 minutes translates to a 2.14 per-90 rate, well above the standard for defenders. Begonja’s early season numbers suggest he is already a significant source of offensive impetus from the back.
Domagoj Begonja has played 42 minutes across 3 appearances in HNL, at 0.00 goals per 90 against a positional baseline of 0.03 and averaging 6.93 a match.
