Scout report

Project playerCentral defender

J. Föhrenbach is a 30-year-old central defender at 1. FC Heidenheim, rated 42.9 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 256th of 325 on scout potential in the Bundesliga. An experienced operator, he has been a regular starter this season (76% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 3.29 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Föhrenbach.

Judged on this season alone, Föhrenbach graded 17 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 39th of 52 of the 52 centre-backs in the Bundesliga, on 1 clean sheet and 3.287 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 24 → 17). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2022/23.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 43, 42nd of 52 of the 52 centre-backs in the Bundesliga. At 30 Föhrenbach is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 12.8 reflects that trajectory.

Clean sheets

3.29 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 1 clean sheet across 27 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (17th 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 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Availability. On the pitch for 76% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.

Watch points

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

Outlook

With a Rating of 42.9, Föhrenbach carries the 42nd-highest potential of the centre-backs in the Bundesliga of 52, and he is posting that for a relegation-threatened side (1. FC Heidenheim finished 17th of 18) — individual numbers are harder to earn on a struggling team, so his underlying level likely sits a touch above the ranking. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (3.29 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1× now → 0.7× projected in three years).
