Filip Taraba Scout File: Why Is the 20-Year-Old Right-Back Valued Above His Senior?
Quick scout answer: Taraba is Istra’s future investment at right-back — and the market has already picked a side: the 20-year-old dual-national (Bosnia/Croatia) is valued at €500k, right behind the 28-year-old senior Kadušić (€600k), and the gap closes monthly. The 2029 contract formalises the succession plan. Limited public sample — a monitoring file. Watch: the turnover speed of the minute scale with Kadušić, attacking output per overlap, and the national-team choice. The reference season for the healthy duel is 2025/26: sixth place and three big scalps (2-1 over Dinamo; 2-1 at Hajduk; 2-0 at Rijeka) used both sides of the rotation.
Representative projection from limited viewing.
Verdict
Active monitoring — if the handover completes in 2026/27, a pre-22 sale window opens. Where data is insufficient, no score is issued.
