Scout report

Squad depthCentral defender

G. Friberg is a 23-year-old central defender at Halmstad, rated 31.5 overall by Field Insider's model. An emerging talent, he has been a rotation option this season (37.1% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 3.06 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Friberg.

On the season, Friberg graded 13 for current form (age-blind), on 3 clean sheets and 3.057 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 13 → 13). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2021/22.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 32. At 23 Friberg is still climbing toward his ceiling, and a market index of 4.1 reflects that trajectory.

Past his 2022/23 peak — the recent trend is downward, so buyers are paying for what's left, not what was.

Clean sheets

3.06 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 3 clean sheets across 12 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.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 37.1% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

Rated 31.5 overall — below regular-starter level. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (3.06 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead.
