Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 24 → 41). Across the 6 seasons we hold, it's his best return yet.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 85, top 4% of the 63 full-backs in the Serie A. At 24 Kristensen is in his prime years, and a market index of 52.6 reflects that trajectory.

Read the appearance count in context: Kristensen missed 8 games through injury (hamstring, thigh, inactive) out of roughly 38 this season. The 28 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.
