Bundesliga and 741st of 2878 U-23 players tracked. A young player, he has been a fringe squad member this season (23.2% of available minutes). He brings 0.38 goal contributions per 90 (0.25 goals, 0.13 assists). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Marshall.

Judged on this season alone, Marshall graded 11 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 35th of 39 of the 39 centre-forwards in the 2. Bundesliga, on 2 goals and 1 assist in 16 appearances (0.381 involvements per 90).

Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 30 → 11). Over the 3 seasons on record his form has trended upward, peaking in 2024/25.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 59, top 29% of the 39 centre-forwards in the 2. Bundesliga. At 21 Marshall is still climbing toward his ceiling, and a market index of 20.1 reflects that trajectory.

2 goals in 16 appearances (0.13 per game) — light end product the role wants to see climb. Add 1 assist for 3 goal contributions in all.

Strengths

  • Final-third output. 0.38 goal contributions per 90 (0.25 goals, 0.13 assists) — productive for the role.
  • Ceiling. High potential at just 21 — room to grow into a bigger role.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 23.2% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.

Outlook

With a Rating of 58.6, Marshall carries the 11th-highest potential of the centre-forwards in the 2. Bundesliga of 39 — though on just 16 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. In the final third he profiles as a productive contributor (0.38 goal contributions 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. With this floor already at 21, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.
