A seasoned veteran, he has been a fringe squad member this season (4.4% of available minutes). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Gressel.

On the season, Gressel graded 0 for current form (age-blind), on 0 goals, 0 assists and 0 defensive actions per 90.

Clean sheets

0 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume across 4 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (12th of 15) 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.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 4.4% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Age curve. At 32, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

Rated 10.7 overall — below regular-starter level. Defensively he reads as light defensive volume (0 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.8× and falling).
