Scout report
S. Nilsen is a 29-year-old full-back at Ham-Kam, rated 26.2 overall by Field Insider's model. An experienced operator, he has been a rotation option this season (54.7% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 2.38 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Nilsen.
On the season, Nilsen graded 13 for current form (age-blind), on 3 clean sheets and 2.376 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 13 → 13). Over the 5 seasons on record his form has trended upward, peaking in 2021/22.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 26. At 29 Nilsen is in his prime years, and a market index of 2.6 reflects that trajectory.
Past his 2021/22 peak — the recent trend is downward, so buyers are paying for what's left, not what was.
Output in context · Ham-Kam finished 11th of 16 · a lower-table side
2.38 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 3 clean sheets across 21 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (11th of 16) is harder than the bare numbers suggest: a back line under more pressure has to defend more often and protects fewer leads, so the volume — and any clean sheets — carry real weight. Going forward he chipped in 1 goal and 3 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.24 goal involvements per 90, useful for a full-back.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 54.7% 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 26.2 overall — below regular-starter level. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.38 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90), with a bit more on the ball than most in the role. Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.1× now → 0.8× projected in three years).
