5 goals in 33 appearances (0.15 per game) for a mid-table side. Add 1 assist for 6 goal contributions in all.

Strengths

  • Availability. On the pitch for 62.4% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
  • Ceiling. High potential at just 21 — room to grow into a bigger role.

Watch points

  • Output. 0.28 contributions per 90 is light for an attacking role — end product needs to climb.
  • Defensive numbers. Modest 1.18 defensive actions per 90 for the position.

Outlook

With a Rating of 79.7, Ansah carries the 11th-highest potential of the attacking midfielders in the Bundesliga (top 19%). In the final third he profiles as a work-in-progress on end product (0.28 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.
