M. Rafferty is a 21-year-old central midfielder at Degerfors IF, rated 36.3 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 41st of 247 in the Allsvenskan and 2387th of 3113 U-23 players tracked.

Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Rafferty.
Judged on this season alone, Rafferty graded 29 — a solid campaign that ranks top 39% of the 59 central midfielders in the Allsvenskan, on 7 goals, 0 assists and 1.285 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 21 → 29). Across the 3 seasons we hold, it's his best return yet.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 36, top 16% of the 59 central midfielders in the Allsvenskan. At 21 Rafferty is still climbing toward his ceiling, and a market index of 11.8 reflects that trajectory.
A career still climbing — Rafferty is at his peak right now, and the curve hasn't flattened.
1.29 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume, with 3 clean sheets across 25 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. Going forward he chipped in 7 goals and 0 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
With a Rating of 36.3, Rafferty carries the 9th-highest potential of the central midfielders in the Allsvenskan (top 16%), and he is posting that for a lower-table side (Degerfors IF finished 13th of 16) — individual numbers are harder to earn on a struggling team, so his underlying level likely sits a touch above the ranking. Defensively he reads as light defensive volume (1.29 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). At 21 the trajectory points up — potential sits near its ceiling (97/100) and market value should climb as minutes and output follow.

The gold line is market value — an index (not €) blending rating, age and league. It climbs through the early 20s, peaks around ages 23–27 (~13), then tapers with age. At 21, Rafferty sits on 11.8, still climbing toward its peak. The blue line is Rafferty's projected Rating — 36.3 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.
