Output in context · Bayern München finished 1st of 18 · a title-challenging side
2.9 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 8 clean sheets across 31 appearances. Behind a title-challenging side (1st of 18) 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 5 goals and 3 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Availability. On the pitch for 63.9% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
- Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.37 goal involvements per 90, useful for a defensive midfielder.
- Pedigree. Performing in a top-tier setting (team strength 91/100).
Watch points
- Age curve. At 31, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
With a Rating of 43.4, Goretzka carries the 48th-highest potential of the defensive midfielders in the Bundesliga of 55. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.9 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.9× and falling).
