Scout report

Squad depthWinger

O. Liimatta is a 22-year-old winger at IFK Varnamo, rated 32.6 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 93rd of 248 on scout potential in the Allsvenskan and 2372nd of 2878 U-23 players tracked. An emerging talent, he has been a fringe squad member this season (33.9% of available minutes). He brings 0.49 goal contributions per 90 (0.3 goals, 0.2 assists). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Liimatta.

Judged on this season alone, Liimatta graded 16 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 10th of 13 of the 13 wingers in the Allsvenskan, on 3 goals and 2 assists in 13 appearances (0.492 involvements per 90).

Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 1 → 16). Across the 3 seasons we hold, it's his best return yet.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 33, 6th of 13 of the 13 wingers in the Allsvenskan. At 22 Liimatta is still climbing toward his ceiling, and a market index of 4 reflects that trajectory.

Goals / app

3 goals in 13 appearances (0.23 per game) — light end product the role wants to see climb. Add 2 assists for 5 goal contributions in all.

Strengths

  • Final-third output. 0.49 goal contributions per 90 (0.3 goals, 0.2 assists) — productive for the role.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 33.9% 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 32.6, Liimatta carries the 6th-highest potential of the wingers in the Allsvenskan of 13 — though on just 13 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. In the final third he profiles as a productive contributor (0.49 goal contributions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 1.9×) with the best seasons likely ahead.
