Ashley Riefner

Ashley Riefner is a talented right wing-back currently playing for Fortuna Hjørring in the Elitedivisionen, Denmark's top-tier women's football league. At 31 years old, the American footballer brings experience and composure to her team's defensive and midfield lines. With a total of 18 games and 1221 minutes under her belt this season, Riefner has become a vital cog in Fortuna Hjørring's strategy, standing out not just for her defensive duties but also for her ability to advance the ball up the field. Her role as a Progressor is underscored by her significant progressive carrying distance of 67.89 meters per 90 minutes and a notable 260.95 meters in progressive passing distance per game.

She maintains a goal-scoring presence with 0.16 goals per 90 minutes, although she has yet to register an assist this season. Her expected goals (xG) per 90 of 0.28 indicates a player who makes the most of her chances offensively despite primarily defensive responsibilities. On the defensive end, Riefner shows an impressive sense of timing and positioning with 5.72 possession-adjusted interceptions and 7.3 challenges per 90 minutes. However, her challenge success rate remains a notable area for improvement, currently at 0%. Despite this, her playmaker rank of 4 out of 5 suggests she plays an essential role in her team's dynamics, often facilitating play from the back with her ability to progress the ball effectively. Her estimated transfer value currently stands at €0, reflecting her status as a staple, non-transfer target for her current team.
