Numerical value representing number of years from current year

Please can someone help me with a calculated column in Dax, I want a numerical value representing the number of years prior to the current year based on a [Date] column. So the current year of 2022 = 0, 2021 = 1, 2020 = 2, 2019 = 3 and so on. I don't mind if it's negative values: 0, -1, -2 -3.

 

Thanks in advance!
