Project playerBall-winning Central defender

A. Madsen is a 21-year-old central defender at Silkeborg, rated 45.2 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 36th of 100 on scout potential in the Superliga and 710th of 1637 U-23 players tracked. A young player, he has been a regular starter this season (77.3% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 5.65 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Madsen.

Judged on this season alone, Madsen graded 42 — a strong campaign that ranks top 30% of the 20 centre-backs in the Superliga, on 2 clean sheets and 5.647 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 3 → 42).

On long-term talent our Rating reads 45, top 20% of the 20 centre-backs in the Superliga. At 21 Madsen is still climbing toward his ceiling, and a market index of 11.7 reflects that trajectory.

Clean sheets

5.65 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — high defensive volume, with 2 clean sheets across 9 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (10th of 12) 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. Going forward he chipped in 1 goal and 0 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Availability. On the pitch for 77.3% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
  • Defensive volume. 5.65 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 45.2, Madsen carries the 4th-highest potential of the centre-backs in the Superliga of 20 — though on just 9 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as high defensive volume (5.65 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). At 21 the trajectory points up — potential sits near its ceiling (97/100) and market value should climb as minutes and output follow.
