Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Heggem.

Judged on this season alone, Heggem graded 33 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 28th of 52 of the 52 centre-backs in the Serie A, on 7 clean sheets and 2.726 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 44 → 33). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has trended upward, peaking in 2024/25.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 64, 27th of 52 of the 52 centre-backs in the Serie A. At 27 Heggem is in his prime years, and a market index of 39.8 reflects that trajectory.

Read the appearance count in context: Heggem missed 3 games through injury and 1 suspension (lacking match fitness, muscle) out of roughly 38 this season. The 27 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.
