Scout report

Squad depthCreative Central midfielder

M. Ofkir is a 30-year-old central midfielder at Valerenga, rated 22.3 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 182nd of 219 on scout potential in the Eliteserien. An experienced operator, he has been a rotation option this season (35.5% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 1.1 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Ofkir.

Judged on this season alone, Ofkir graded 22 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 30th of 50 of the 50 central midfielders in the Eliteserien, on 2 goals, 3 assists and 1.104 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 15 → 22). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has trended upward, peaking in 2022/23.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 22, 43rd of 50 of the 50 central midfielders in the Eliteserien. At 30 Ofkir is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 3.3 reflects that trajectory.

Read the appearance count in context: Ofkir missed 6 games through injury (knee) out of roughly 29 this season. The 10 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

1.1 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume, with 2 clean sheets across 10 appearances. Going forward he chipped in 2 goals and 3 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.61 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central midfielder.
  • Creativity. 0.37 assists per 90 — a genuine creative outlet.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 35.5% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Defensive numbers. Modest 1.1 defensive actions per 90 for the position.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 22.3, Ofkir carries the 43rd-highest potential of the central midfielders in the Eliteserien of 50 — though on just 10 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as light defensive volume (1.1 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).
