Scout report

Project playerFull-back

A. Poulsen is a 26-year-old full-back at Silkeborg, rated 39.9 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 100th of 207 on scout potential in the Superliga. In his prime years, he has been a regular starter this season (73.4% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 3.62 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Poulsen.

Judged on this season alone, Poulsen graded 18 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 25th of 38 of the 38 full-backs in the Superliga, on 2 clean sheets and 3.615 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 13 → 18). Across the 5 seasons we hold, it's his best return yet.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 40, 20th of 38 of the 38 full-backs in the Superliga. At 26 Poulsen is in his prime years, and a market index of 7.5 reflects that trajectory.

Read the appearance count in context: Poulsen missed 3 games through injury (injury) out of roughly 32 this season. The 24 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.

Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (3.62 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.
