Scout report

Squad depthFull-back

R. Skov is a 30-year-old full-back at Union Berlin, rated 32.2 overall by Field Insider's model. An experienced operator, he has been a fringe squad member this season (14.6% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 3.23 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Skov.

On the season, Skov graded 10 for current form (age-blind), on 1 clean sheet and 3.229 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 15 → 10). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2022/23.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 32. At 30 Skov is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 9.6 reflects that trajectory.

Read the appearance count in context: Skov missed 26 games through injury (muscle, injury) out of roughly 34 this season. The 3 he did play is a solid return on the time he was fit, and his ratings are weighted toward those games rather than the ones he sat out injured.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 14.6% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

Rated 32.2 overall — below regular-starter level. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (3.23 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1× now → 0.7× projected in three years).
