Clean sheets

5.92 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — high defensive volume, with 3 clean sheets across 13 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (11th 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

  • Availability. On the pitch for 78.8% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
  • Defensive volume. 5.92 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 29.1, Norén carries the 20th-highest potential of the centre-backs in the Allsvenskan of 37 — though on just 13 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as high defensive volume (5.92 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). In the prime window — at or near peak market value, so the next two seasons are the ones to cash in or build around.
