Scout report
E. Hestad is a 31-year-old central midfielder at Molde, rated 14.9 overall by Field Insider's model. A seasoned veteran, he has been a fringe squad member this season (10.1% of available minutes). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Hestad.
On the season, Hestad graded 6 for current form (age-blind), on 1 goal, 0 assists and 0 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 12 → 6). Over the 4 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2020/21.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 15. At 31 Hestad is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 1.2 reflects that trajectory.
Past his 2020/21 peak — the recent trend is downward, so buyers are paying for what's left, not what was.
Output in context · Molde finished 10th of 16 · a mid-table side
0 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume across 2 appearances. Going forward he chipped in 1 goal and 0 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.66 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central midfielder.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 10.1% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
- Age curve. At 31, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
Rated 14.9 overall — below regular-starter level. Defensively he reads as light defensive volume (0 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.9× and falling).
