Scout report

Squad depthBall-winning Full-back

M. Baggesen is a 23-year-old full-back at IFK Norrkoping, rated 32 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 103rd of 248 on scout potential in the Allsvenskan. An emerging talent, he has been a rotation option this season (51.5% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 4.55 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Baggesen.

Judged on this season alone, Baggesen graded 17 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 28th of 42 of the 42 full-backs in the Allsvenskan, on 2 clean sheets and 4.552 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 6 → 17). Over the 3 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2023/24.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 32, top 34% of the 42 full-backs in the Allsvenskan. At 23 Baggesen is still climbing toward his ceiling, and a market index of 4.1 reflects that trajectory.

Clean sheets

4.55 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 2 clean sheets across 22 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (14th of 16) is harder than the bare numbers suggest: a back line under more pressure has to defend more often and protects fewer leads, so the volume — and any clean sheets — carry real weight.

Strengths

  • Defensive volume. 4.55 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 51.5% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 32, Baggesen carries the 14th-highest potential of the full-backs in the Allsvenskan (top 34%), and he is posting that for a relegation-threatened side (IFK Norrkoping finished 14th of 16) — individual numbers are harder to earn on a struggling team, so his underlying level likely sits a touch above the ranking. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (4.55 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead.
