Scout report

Squad depthCentral defender

M. Welinder is a 22-year-old central defender at Moss, rated 30.3 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 58th of 148 on scout potential in the 1. Division and 1497th of 1772 U-23 players tracked. An emerging talent, he has been a rotation option this season (40.7% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 1.23 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Welinder.

Judged on this season alone, Welinder graded 5 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 30th of 32 of the 32 centre-backs in the 1. Division, on 1 clean sheet and 1.229 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 3 → 5).

On long-term talent our Rating reads 30, 14th of 32 of the 32 centre-backs in the 1. Division. At 22 Welinder is still climbing toward his ceiling, and a market index of 3.3 reflects that trajectory.

Clean sheets

1.23 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume, with 1 clean sheet across 11 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 40.7% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Defensive numbers. Modest 1.23 defensive actions per 90 for the position.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 30.3, Welinder carries the 14th-highest potential of the centre-backs in the 1. Division of 32 — though on just 11 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as light defensive volume (1.23 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 1.9×) with the best seasons likely ahead.
