Ellertsson

24 / €6m / 2025/26

Passing

How much he moves the ball for his team through volume, completion, and long-range execution. This blends 23.62 passes attempted p90, 17.27 completed p90, pass completion, and long-ball delivery quality into one passing pillar.

13.7

Progressiveness

How reliably he drags possession up the pitch through ball progression. He records 4.52 progressive passes p90 and 1.09 progressive carries p90, with repeat access into advanced zones.

7.7

Threat

How much danger he creates once the ball reaches him. He generates 0.07 xT p90 and 0.58 key passes p90, so this captures chance-driving more than simple volume.

34.1

Game state

How much on-ball value he adds when the score still needs changing. It blends xT when his team is not ahead, xT while drawing, xT while trailing, plus the same game-state lens applied to G/A so decisive actions under pressure count properly too.

69.2

G/A

End-product contribution from direct scoring and true final-ball involvement. This score is driven by goals per 90, assists per 90, and combined G/A per 90 so that output is measured on a rate basis rather than raw volume alone.

35.7

Defensive work

Ball-winning activity adjusted for the amount of defending his team actually has to do. The key context number is 1.49 defensive actions per 100 opponent passes, which makes cross-team comparison fairer.

17.6

Availability

How available and trusted he is across the sample, blending workload with injury drag. He appears in 29 matches, starts 24 of them, and this score is then moderated by injury days, injury games missed, and injury episodes.

86.3

Overall

Final blended score across all active pillars for this role profile.

31.8

Archetype

Creator

Leans most strongly toward creator actions, with final-third threat traits as the secondary layer. This is describing the player's style profile, not his rank.

Similarity
