2 goals in 17 appearances (0.12 per game) — light end product the role wants to see climb. He also laid on 3 assists, so the all-round involvement reads 5 goal contributions (0.29 per appearance).

Strengths

Availability. On the pitch for 77.8% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
Final-third output. 0.38 goal contributions per 90 (0.15 goals, 0.23 assists) — productive for the role.

Watch points

Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 28, Lorentzen carries the 17th-highest potential of the centre-forwards in the Eliteserien of 19, and he is posting that for a relegation-threatened side (Start finished 16th of 16) — individual numbers are harder to earn on a struggling team, so his underlying level likely sits a touch above the ranking. In the final third he profiles as a productive contributor (0.38 goal contributions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.1× now → 0.8× projected in three years).

At 29, Lorentzen sits on 4.6, past its peak and easing. The blue line is Lorentzen's projected Rating — 28 today — recomputed at each age, so it follows the same rise-and-fall as a career matures and declines. Solid = up to today; dashed = projected.
