Scout report

Project playerCentral defender

M. Roseth is a 28-year-old central defender at Viking, rated 33.1 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 126th of 219 on scout potential in the Eliteserien. An experienced operator, he has been a regular starter this season (61.8% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 3.17 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Roseth.

Judged on this season alone, Roseth graded 26 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 15th of 34 of the 34 centre-backs in the Eliteserien, on 5 clean sheets and 3.172 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 11 → 26). Across the 6 seasons we hold, it's his best return yet.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 33, 17th of 34 of the 34 centre-backs in the Eliteserien. At 28 Roseth is in his prime years, and a market index of 4.7 reflects that trajectory.

Read the appearance count in context: Roseth missed 3 games through injury and 1 suspension (injury) out of roughly 30 this season. The 20 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.

Clean sheets

3.17 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 5 clean sheets across 20 appearances. Behind a title-challenging side (1st 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 4 goals and 0 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Availability. On the pitch for 61.8% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
  • Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.25 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central defender.

Watch points

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

Outlook

With a Rating of 33.1, Roseth carries the 17th-highest potential of the centre-backs in the Eliteserien of 34. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (3.17 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.2× now → 0.9× projected in three years).
