On long-term talent our Rating reads 34, 30th of 53 of the 53 centre-backs in the 3. Liga. At 27 Carstens is in his prime years, and a market index of 6.4 reflects that trajectory.
Below his 2024/25 peak but holding a solid level — the platform for a return is there.
Output in context · Hansa Rostock finished 5th of 20 · an upper-table side
2.78 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 6 clean sheets across 32 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (5th of 20) the side controls more games, so the defensive load is lighter — the value sits as much in composure and ball progression as in raw volume. Going forward he chipped in 1 goal and 0 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 52.1% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
