Project playerBall-winning Defensive midfielder

M. Larsen is a 24-year-old defensive midfielder at Silkeborg, rated 40.8 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 38th of 88 on scout potential in the Superliga. An emerging talent, he has been a regular starter this season (72.7% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 4.75 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Larsen.

Judged on this season alone, Larsen graded 23 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 6th of 6 of the 6 defensive midfielders in the Superliga, on 0 goals, 0 assists and 4.75 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 26 → 23). Over the 4 seasons on record his form has trended upward, peaking in 2024/25.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 41, top 34% of the 6 defensive midfielders in the Superliga. At 24 Larsen is in his prime years, and a market index of 7.6 reflects that trajectory.

Clean sheets

4.75 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 1 clean sheet across 8 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (10th of 12) 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.

Strengths

  • Availability. On the pitch for 72.7% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
  • Defensive volume. 4.75 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

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

Outlook

With a Rating of 40.8, Larsen carries the 2nd-highest potential of the defensive midfielders in the Superliga of 6 — though on just 8 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (4.75 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead.
