Clean sheets

4.21 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 11 clean sheets across 27 appearances. Behind a title-challenging side (2nd 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 1 goal and 4 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

Availability. On the pitch for 84.4% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.2 goal involvements per 90, useful for a defensive midfielder.
Defensive volume. 4.21 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

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

Outlook

With a Rating of 27, Tekie carries the 12th-highest potential of the defensive midfielders in the Allsvenskan of 17. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (4.21 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 (1.1× now → 0.8× projected in three years).

The gold line is market value — an index (not €) blending rating, age and league. It climbs through the early 20s, peaks around ages 23–27 (~6), then tapers with age. At 29, Tekie sits on 3.2, past its peak and easing. The blue line is Tekie's projected Rating — 27 today — recomputed at each age, so it follows the same rise-and-fall as a career matures and declines. Solid = up to today; dashed = projected.
