Scout report

Squad depthCentral defender

D. Vavro is a 30-year-old central defender at VfL Wolfsburg, rated 40.7 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 265th of 325 on scout potential in the Bundesliga. An experienced operator, he has been a rotation option this season (55.8% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 2.69 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Vavro.

Judged on this season alone, Vavro graded 11 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 52nd of 52 of the 52 centre-backs in the Bundesliga, on 1 clean sheet and 2.69 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 29 → 11). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has trended upward, peaking in 2022/23.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 41, 46th of 52 of the 52 centre-backs in the Bundesliga. At 30 Vavro is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 12.2 reflects that trajectory.

Read the appearance count in context: Vavro missed 8 games through injury (muscle, muscle bruise) out of roughly 36 this season. The 19 he did play is a solid return on the time he was fit, and his ratings are weighted toward those games rather than the ones he sat out injured.

  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 40.7, Vavro carries the 46th-highest potential of the centre-backs in the Bundesliga of 52. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.69 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1× now → 0.7× projected in three years).
