Squad depthFull-back

Vetle Auklend is a 21-year-old full-back at Viking, rated 41.1 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 80th of 239 on scout potential in the Eliteserien and 772nd of 1628 U-23 players tracked. A young player, he has been a fringe squad member this season (33.6% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 3.4 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Auklend.

Judged on this season alone, Auklend graded 14 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 35th of 42 of the 42 full-backs in the Eliteserien, on 2 clean sheets and 3.402 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 5 → 14). Across the 3 seasons we hold, it's his best return yet.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 41, top 36% of the 42 full-backs in the Eliteserien. At 21 Auklend is still climbing toward his ceiling, and a market index of 6.7 reflects that trajectory.

Clean sheets

3.4 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 2 clean sheets across 15 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.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 33.6% 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 41.1, Auklend carries the 15th-highest potential of the full-backs in the Eliteserien of 42 — though on just 15 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (3.4 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). At 21 the trajectory points up — potential sits near its ceiling (97/100) and market value should climb as minutes and output follow.
