T. Tekie is a 29-year-old central midfielder at Hammarby FF, rated 21 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 161st of 215 on scout potential in the Allsvenskan. An experienced operator, he has been a fringe squad member this season (32.3% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 2.68 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Tekie.

Judged on this season alone, Tekie graded 13 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 36th of 39 of the 39 central midfielders in the Allsvenskan, on 1 goal, 0 assists and 2.676 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 40 → 13). Over the 7 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2020/21.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 21, 31st of 39 of the 39 central midfielders in the Allsvenskan. At 29 Tekie is in his prime years, and a market index of 1.5 reflects that trajectory.

Clean sheets

2.68 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 3 clean sheets across 14 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (3rd of 16) 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 1 goal and 0 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 32.3% 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 21, Tekie carries the 31st-highest potential of the central midfielders in the Allsvenskan of 39 — though on just 14 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.68 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.1× now → 0.8× projected in three years).
