Caps & goals this season.
V. Nelsson is a 27-year-old central defender at Hellas Verona, rated 66 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 193rd of 385 in the Serie A. In his prime years, he has been an ever-present this season (97.1% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 4.42 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Nelsson.
Judged on this season alone, Nelsson graded 41 — a solid campaign that ranks top 40% of the 51 centre-backs in the Serie A, on 6 clean sheets and 4.416 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 4 → 41). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has trended upward, peaking in 2022/23.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 66, 23rd of 51 of the 51 centre-backs in the Serie A. At 27 Nelsson is in his prime years, and a market index of 113.5 reflects that trajectory.
Past his 2022/23 peak — the recent trend is downward, so buyers are paying for what's left, not what was.
4.42 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 6 clean sheets across 38 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (19th of 20) 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.
With a Rating of 66, Nelsson carries the 23rd-highest potential of the centre-backs in the Serie A of 51, and he is posting that for a relegation-threatened side (Hellas Verona finished 19th of 20) — 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 solid defensive volume (4.42 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. Doing it for a lesser side, he profiles as a value buy for a club higher up the table.

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 (~114), then tapers with age. At 27, Nelsson sits on 113.5, at or near its peak. The blue line is Nelsson's projected Rating — 66 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.
