Scout report
M. Andersen is a 28-year-old central defender at Luton, rated 35.5 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 284th of 481 on scout potential in the League One. An experienced operator, he has been a regular starter this season (69.6% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 2.91 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Andersen.
Judged on this season alone, Andersen graded 26 — a solid campaign that ranks top 31% of the 88 centre-backs in the League One, on 8 clean sheets and 2.907 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 4 → 26). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2020/21.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 36, 45th of 88 of the 88 centre-backs in the League One. At 28 Andersen is in his prime years, and a market index of 5.8 reflects that trajectory.
Read the appearance count in context: Andersen missed 4 games through injury (hamstring) out of roughly 46 this season. The 33 he did play is a solid return on the time he was fit, and his ratings are weighted toward those games rather than the ones he sat out injured.
Below his 2020/21 peak but holding a solid level — the platform for a return is there.
Output in context · Luton finished 7th of 24 · an upper-table side
2.91 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 8 clean sheets across 33 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (7th of 24) the side controls more games, so the defensive load is lighter — the value sits as much in composure and ball progression as in raw volume. Going forward he chipped in 2 goals and 2 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Availability. On the pitch for 69.6% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
Watch points
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
With a Rating of 35.5, Andersen carries the 45th-highest potential of the centre-backs in the League One of 88. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.91 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.2× now → 0.9× projected in three years).
