5.6 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — high defensive volume, with 1 clean sheet across 10 appearances. Going forward he chipped in 0 goals and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Defensive volume. 5.6 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 38.3% 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 35.2, Mansson carries the 7th-highest potential of the defensive midfielders in the Allsvenskan of 20 — though on just 10 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as high defensive volume (5.6 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). At 16 the trajectory points up — potential sits near its ceiling (100/100) and market value should climb as minutes and output follow.
