Judged on this season alone, Valsvik graded 23 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 20th of 34 of the 34 centre-backs in the Eliteserien, on 2 clean sheets and 3.966 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 46 → 23). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2021/22.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 18, 31st of 34 of the 34 centre-backs in the Eliteserien. At 33 Valsvik is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 1.9 reflects that trajectory.
Past his 2021/22 peak — the recent trend is downward, so buyers are paying for what's left, not what was.
Output in context · Stromsgodset finished 15th of 16 · a relegation-threatened side
3.97 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 2 clean sheets across 29 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (15th 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 2 goals and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Availability. On the pitch for 100% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
- Defensive volume. 3.97 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.
Watch points
- Age curve. At 33, 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 18.1, Valsvik carries the 31st-highest potential of the centre-backs in the Eliteserien of 34, and he is posting that for a relegation-threatened side (Stromsgodset finished 15th 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 solid defensive volume (3.97 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.7× and falling).
