Arsenal scouts keeping tabs on midfielder Silas Andersen

By on November 10, 2025

Arsenal’s scouting network is said to be tracking BK Häcken midfielder Silas Andersen, according to reports from Ekstrabladet.

The London club continue to widen their search for promising young players who could strengthen their squad both now and in the future.

Reports suggest that Arsenal scouts recently watched Andersen in action during BK Häcken’s UEFA Conference League match against Strasbourg.

The club’s interest highlights their continued efforts to identify emerging talent across Europe before they become household names.

The 21-year-old Danish U20 international has been in impressive form this season. His growing influence in Häcken’s midfield has caught the eye of several European clubs.

Arsenal are not alone in following the youngster’s progress, as Copenhagen and Premier League side Nottingham Forest are also keeping an eye on him, as per the report.

Competition for Andersen’s signature

While the exact level of Arsenal’s interest is not yet known, Ekstrabladet claims Andersen is among a group of players currently being monitored by Mikel Arteta’s recruitment team.

His potential and style of play appear to fit Arsenal’s recent transfer model of signing both established players and young prospects capable of adapting quickly to top-level football.

Copenhagen made an attempt to sign Andersen earlier, but the Swedish club held firm, recognising his growing importance.

Nottingham Forest are also thought to be assessing him closely, which could lead to increased competition for his signature if he continues to impress.

According to figures from Transfermarkt, Andersen is currently valued at around £702,000.

His valuation could rise if he maintains his current level of performance and continues to attract attention from major clubs.

Profile and style of play

Andersen is a holding midfielder known for his defensive discipline and smart positioning.

He is comfortable breaking up attacks, winning duels, and making interceptions.

Despite his defensive duties, he shows confidence on the ball and demonstrates strong passing ability.

His ability to combine defensive solidity with composed distribution makes him an asset in midfield.

He is described as a “superb holding DM” who can protect the backline while initiating attacking moves.

Although he is still developing his all-round game, Andersen’s maturity and work rate continue to draw praise.

For Arsenal, Andersen represents another example of the club’s strategy to spot emerging talent early, ensuring they remain competitive both in England and across Europe.
