Strengths

  • Availability. On the pitch for 60.6% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
  • Defensive volume. 3.95 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.
  • Ceiling. High potential at just 21 — room to grow into a bigger role.

Watch points

  • Few red flags. No obvious weaknesses in the current-season profile — consistency is the next test.

Outlook

With a Rating of 61.3, Pauli carries the 7th-highest potential of the centre-backs in the 2. Bundesliga (top 13%). Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (3.95 tackles, blocks & interceptions 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.
