R. Kristensen is a 29-year-old full-back at FC Midtjylland, rated 34 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 90th of 115 on scout potential in the Superliga. An experienced operator, he has been an ever-present this season (97.2% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 3.19 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Kristensen.

Judged on this season alone, Kristensen graded 28 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 11th of 18 of the 18 full-backs in the Superliga, on 2 clean sheets and 3.189 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 24 → 28). Over the 5 seasons on record his form has held fairly steady, peaking in 2024/25.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 34, 15th of 18 of the 18 full-backs in the Superliga. At 29 Kristensen is in his prime years, and a market index of 4.8 reflects that trajectory.

Clean sheets

3.19 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 2 clean sheets across 10 appearances. Behind a title-challenging side (2nd 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 2 goals and 0 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Availability. On the pitch for 97.2% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
  • Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.21 goal involvements per 90, useful for a full-back.

Watch points

  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 34, Kristensen carries the 15th-highest potential of the full-backs in the Superliga of 18 — though on just 10 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (3.19 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.1× now → 0.8× projected in three years).
