Scout report
K. Paulsen is a 22-year-old central defender at Sogndal, rated 27.7 overall by Field Insider's model. An emerging talent, he has been a fringe squad member this season (10.7% of available minutes). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Paulsen.
On the season, Paulsen graded 3 for current form (age-blind), on 1 clean sheet and 0 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 0 → 3). Across the 3 seasons we hold, it's his best return yet.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 28. At 22 Paulsen is still climbing toward his ceiling, and a market index of 3 reflects that trajectory.
Output in context · Sogndal finished 13th of 16 · a lower-table side
0 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume, with 1 clean sheet across 8 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (13th 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 10.7% 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 27.7 overall — below regular-starter level. Defensively he reads as light defensive volume (0 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 1.9×) with the best seasons likely ahead.
