Scout report
J. Soltvedt is a 30-year-old full-back at Brann, rated 26.8 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 162nd of 219 on scout potential in the Eliteserien. An experienced operator, he has been a regular starter this season (72.6% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 1.53 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Soltvedt.
Judged on this season alone, Soltvedt graded 11 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 35th of 38 of the 38 full-backs in the Eliteserien, on 3 clean sheets and 1.531 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 22 → 11). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2023/24.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 27, 28th of 38 of the 38 full-backs in the Eliteserien. At 30 Soltvedt is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 2.4 reflects that trajectory.
Read the appearance count in context: Soltvedt missed 3 games through injury (injury) out of roughly 30 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.
Past his 2023/24 peak — the recent trend is downward, so buyers are paying for what's left, not what was.
Output in context · Brann finished 4th of 16 · an upper-table side
1.53 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume, with 3 clean sheets across 24 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (4th 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 9 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Availability. On the pitch for 72.6% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
- Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.56 goal involvements per 90, useful for a full-back.
- Creativity. 0.46 assists per 90 — a genuine creative outlet.
Watch points
- Defensive numbers. Modest 1.53 defensive actions per 90 for the position.
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
With a Rating of 26.8, Soltvedt carries the 28th-highest potential of the full-backs in the Eliteserien of 38. Defensively he reads as light defensive volume (1.53 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90), with a bit more on the ball than most in the role. Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1× now → 0.7× projected in three years).
