In his prime years, he has been a fringe squad member this season (31.9% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 2.12 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Mickelson.
Judged on this season alone, Mickelson graded 11 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 51st of 62 of the 62 full-backs in the 2. Bundesliga, on 3 clean sheets and 2.123 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 12 → 11). Over the 5 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2021/22.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 47, 37th of 62 of the 62 full-backs in the 2. Bundesliga. At 27 Mickelson is in his prime years, and a market index of 17.9 reflects that trajectory.
Below his 2021/22 peak but holding a solid level — the platform for a return is there.
Output in context · SV Elversberg finished 2nd of 18 · a title-challenging side
2.12 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 3 clean sheets across 25 appearances. Behind a title-challenging side (2nd of 18) 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 1 goal and 2 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.28 goal involvements per 90, useful for a full-back.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 31.9% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
Outlook
With a Rating of 47, Mickelson carries the 37th-highest potential of the full-backs in the 2. Bundesliga of 62. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.12 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90), with a bit more on the ball than most in the role. In the prime window — at or near peak market value, so the next two seasons are the ones to cash in or build around.
