Clean sheets

1.71 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume, with 2 clean sheets across 18 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (13th 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. Going forward he chipped in 0 goals and 2 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Availability. On the pitch for 71.5% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
  • Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.16 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central midfielder.

Watch points

  • Defensive numbers. Modest 1.71 defensive actions per 90 for the position.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 20.6, Hallberg carries the 25th-highest potential of the central midfielders in the Allsvenskan of 32, and he is posting that for a lower-table side (Kalmar FF finished 13th of 16) — individual numbers are harder to earn on a struggling team, so his underlying level likely sits a touch above the ranking. Defensively he reads as light defensive volume (1.71 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90), with a bit more on the ball than most in the role. Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1× now → 0.7× projected in three years).
