His defensive output reads 2.54 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Ulvestad.
Judged on this season alone, Ulvestad graded 18 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 24th of 36 of the 36 centre-backs in the Eliteserien, on 2 clean sheets and 2.538 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 23 → 18). Over the 7 seasons on record his form has held fairly steady, peaking in 2021/22.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 12, 36th of 36 of the 36 centre-backs in the Eliteserien. At 37 Ulvestad is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 0.9 reflects that trajectory.
Below his 2021/22 peak but holding a solid level — the platform for a return is there.
Output in context · Kristiansund BK finished 14th of 16 · a relegation-threatened side
2.54 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 2 clean sheets across 16 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
- Availability. On the pitch for 90.4% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
Watch points
- Age curve. At 37, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
With a Rating of 12.2, Ulvestad carries the 36th-highest potential of the centre-backs in the Eliteserien of 36, and he is posting that for a relegation-threatened side (Kristiansund BK finished 14th 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 moderate defensive volume (2.54 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.5× and falling).
