Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Pålsson.

  • Game time. Only 34.6% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 33.7, Pålsson carries the 18th-highest potential of the centre-backs in the Allsvenskan of 47 — though on just 10 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.63 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). At 20 the trajectory points up — potential sits near its ceiling (98/100) and market value should climb as minutes and output follow.
