Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 21 → 22). Over the 5 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2021/22.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 17, 42nd of 45 of the 45 central midfielders in the Eliteserien. At 32 Jónsson is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 2 reflects that trajectory.

Clean sheets

3.21 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 2 clean sheets across 15 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (12th 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 0 goals and 2 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.17 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central midfielder.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 51.5% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Age curve. At 32, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 16.8, Jónsson carries the 42nd-highest potential of the central midfielders in the Eliteserien of 45, and he is posting that for a lower-table side (Ham-Kam finished 12th of 16) — individual numbers are harder to earn on a struggling team, so his underlying level likely sits a touch above the ranking. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (3.21 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90), with a bit more on the ball than most in the role. Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.8× and falling).
