0 goals in 14 appearances (0 per game) — light end product the role wants to see climb. He also laid on 5 assists, so the all-round involvement reads 5 goal contributions (0.36 per appearance).

Strengths

  • Availability. On the pitch for 64.6% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
  • Final-third output. 0.46 goal contributions per 90 (0 goals, 0.46 assists) — productive for the role.
  • Defensive volume. 5.1 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

  • Age curve. At 32, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 19.2, Selnæs carries the 21st-highest potential of the attacking midfielders in the Eliteserien of 22 — though on just 14 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. In the final third he profiles as a productive contributor (0.46 goal contributions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.8× and falling).
