An experienced operator, he has been a rotation option this season (43.4% of available minutes). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Pettersson.
Judged on this season alone, Pettersson graded 5 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 18th of 25 of the 25 goalkeepers in the Allsvenskan, on 2 clean sheets across 11 appearances.
Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 14 → 5). Over the 4 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2024/25.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 21, 15th of 25 of the 25 goalkeepers in the Allsvenskan. At 29 Pettersson is in his prime years, and a market index of 1.5 reflects that trajectory.
Read the appearance count in context: Pettersson missed 6 games through injury (inactive, groin) out of roughly 30 this season. The 11 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.
Below his 2024/25 peak but holding a solid level — the platform for a return is there.

- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
With a Rating of 20.8, Pettersson carries the 15th-highest potential of the goalkeepers in the Allsvenskan of 25 — though on just 11 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. A rotation minutes keeper carrying the gloves this season. Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.1× now → 0.8× projected in three years).
