Scout report

Squad depthBall-winning Central defender

Ahmad Faqa is a 23-year-old central defender at Degerfors IF, rated 32.2 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 115th of 209 on scout potential in the Allsvenskan. An emerging talent, he has been a rotation option this season (51.5% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 5.05 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Faqa.

Judged on this season alone, Faqa graded 25 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 21st of 45 of the 45 centre-backs in the Allsvenskan, on 1 clean sheet and 5.05 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 1 → 25). Across the 3 seasons we hold, it's his best return yet.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 32, 20th of 45 of the 45 centre-backs in the Allsvenskan. At 23 Faqa is still climbing toward his ceiling, and a market index of 5.4 reflects that trajectory.

Clean sheets

5.05 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — high defensive volume, with 1 clean sheet across 14 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (14th 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. 5.05 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 51.5% 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 32.2, Faqa carries the 20th-highest potential of the centre-backs in the Allsvenskan of 45 — though on just 14 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as high defensive volume (5.05 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead.
