Scout report
B. Bjarnason is a 26-year-old full-back at SpVgg Greuther Fürth, rated 45.3 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 201st of 320 on scout potential in the 2. Bundesliga. In his prime years, he has been a fringe squad member this season (27.3% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 3.16 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Bjarnason.
Judged on this season alone, Bjarnason graded 9 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 55th of 62 of the 62 full-backs in the 2. Bundesliga, on 2 clean sheets and 3.16 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 15 → 9). Over the 5 seasons on record his form has trended upward, peaking in 2023/24.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 45, 38th of 62 of the 62 full-backs in the 2. Bundesliga. At 26 Bjarnason is in his prime years, and a market index of 17.3 reflects that trajectory.
Past his 2023/24 peak — the recent trend is downward, so buyers are paying for what's left, not what was.
Output in context · SpVgg Greuther Fürth finished 16th of 18 · a relegation-threatened side
3.16 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 2 clean sheets across 17 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (16th of 18) is harder than the bare numbers suggest: a back line under more pressure has to defend more often and protects fewer leads, so the volume — and any clean sheets — carry real weight. Going forward he chipped in 1 goal and 0 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 27.3% 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 45.3, Bjarnason carries the 38th-highest potential of the full-backs in the 2. Bundesliga of 62 — though on just 17 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (3.16 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). In the prime window — at or near peak market value, so the next two seasons are the ones to cash in or build around.
