Clean sheets

3.24 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 3 clean sheets across 8 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (4th of 12) 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 0 goals and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

Availability. On the pitch for 64.5% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.

Watch points

Age curve. At 36, 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 14.5, Ankersen carries the 18th-highest potential of the full-backs in the Superliga of 18 — though on just 8 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (3.24 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.6× and falling).

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 (~5), then tapers with age. At 36, Ankersen sits on 1.4, past its peak and easing. The blue line is Ankersen's projected Rating — 14.5 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.
