S. Kristiansen is a 27-year-old central defender at Lillestrom, rated 30.5 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 171st of 231 on scout potential in the Eliteserien. In his prime years, he has been a fringe squad member this season (33.1% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 3.22 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Kristiansen.

Judged on this season alone, Kristiansen graded 10 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 40th of 45 of the 45 centre-backs in the Eliteserien, on 2 clean sheets and 3.221 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 41 → 10). Over the 3 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2025/26.

Clean sheets

3.22 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 2 clean sheets across 13 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (5th 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.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 33.1% 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 30.5, Kristiansen carries the 30th-highest potential of the centre-backs in the Eliteserien of 45 — though on just 13 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (3.22 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). In the prime window — at or near peak market value, so the next two seasons are the ones to cash in or build around.
