Scout report
C. Nørgaard is a 32-year-old defensive midfielder at Arsenal, rated 23.2 overall by Field Insider's model. A seasoned veteran, he has been a fringe squad member this season (3.4% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 4.17 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Nørgaard.
On the season, Nørgaard graded 1 for current form (age-blind), on 0 goals, 0 assists and 4.167 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 66 → 1). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2021/22.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 23. At 32 Nørgaard is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 11.1 reflects that trajectory.
Read the appearance count in context: Nørgaard missed 3 games through injury (wound) out of roughly 38 this season. The 7 he did play is a solid return on the time he was fit, and his ratings are weighted toward those games rather than the ones he sat out injured.
A career still climbing — Nørgaard is at his peak right now, and the curve hasn't flattened.
Output in context · Arsenal finished 1st of 20 · a title-challenging side
4.17 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 1 clean sheet across 7 appearances. Behind a title-challenging side (1st of 20) the side controls more games, so the defensive load is lighter — the value sits as much in composure and ball progression as in raw volume.
Strengths
- Defensive volume. 4.17 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.
- Pedigree. Performing in a top-tier setting (team strength 100/100).
Watch points
- Game time. Only 3.4% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
- Age curve. At 32, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
Rated 23.2 overall — below regular-starter level. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (4.17 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.8× and falling).
