Clean sheets

3.74 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 8 clean sheets across 23 appearances. Behind a title-challenging side (1st of 16) 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 1 goal and 2 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Availability. On the pitch for 94.7% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
  • Defensive volume. 3.74 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 38.3, Heier carries the 5th-highest potential of the defensive midfielders in the Allsvenskan (top 27%). Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (3.74 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead.
