Scout report

Squad depthDefensive midfielder

B. Tahirović is a 23-year-old defensive midfielder at Brondby, rated 39.1 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 106th of 207 on scout potential in the Superliga. An emerging talent, he has been a rotation option this season (40.4% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 3.38 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Tahirović.

Judged on this season alone, Tahirović graded 18 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 33rd of 36 of the 36 defensive midfielders in the Superliga, on 1 goal, 1 assist and 3.378 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 10 → 18). Over the 4 seasons on record his form has trended upward, peaking in 2023/24.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 39, 25th of 36 of the 36 defensive midfielders in the Superliga. At 23 Tahirović is still climbing toward his ceiling, and a market index of 7.3 reflects that trajectory.

Clean sheets

3.38 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 5 clean sheets across 25 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (4th of 6) 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 1 goal and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.15 goal involvements per 90, useful for a defensive midfielder.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 40.4% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 39.1, Tahirović carries the 25th-highest potential of the defensive midfielders in the Superliga of 36, and he is posting that for a relegation-threatened side (Brondby finished 4th of 6) — 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 (3.38 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead.
