  • Game time. Only 39.8% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 30.9, Kristiansen carries the 31st-highest potential of the centre-backs in the Eliteserien of 47 — though on just 14 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (3.02 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). In the prime window — at or near peak market value, so the next two seasons are the ones to cash in or build around.
