Outlook

With a Rating of 17.1, Olsen carries the 18th-highest potential of the centre-forwards in the Eliteserien of 19 — though on just 11 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. In the final third he profiles as a productive contributor (0.53 goal contributions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.6× and falling).

Solid = now · dashed = projected

The gold line is market value — an index (not €) blending rating, age and league. It climbs through the early 20s, peaks around ages 23–27 (~5), then tapers with age. At 35, Olsen sits on 1.5, past its peak and easing. The blue line is Olsen's projected Rating — 17.1 today — recomputed at each age, so it follows the same rise-and-fall as a career matures and declines. Solid = up to today; dashed = projected.
