Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Falchener.

Judged on this season alone, Falchener graded 26 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 22nd of 41 of the 41 full-backs in the Eliteserien, on 4 clean sheets and 3.231 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 36 → 26). Over the 5 seasons on record his form has trended upward, peaking in 2025/26.

Clean sheets

3.23 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 4 clean sheets across 14 appearances. Behind a title-challenging side (2nd of 16) the side controls more games, so the defensive load is lighter — the value sits as much in composure and ball progression as in raw volume. Going forward he chipped in 2 goals and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Availability. On the pitch for 60.4% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
  • Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.24 goal involvements per 90, useful for a full-back.

Watch points

  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 44.3, Falchener carries the 10th-highest potential of the full-backs in the Eliteserien of 41 — though on just 14 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (3.23 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead.
