Clean sheets

4.29 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 4 clean sheets across 25 appearances. Behind a title-challenging side (2nd of 12) 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 0 goals and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Availability. On the pitch for 70.6% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
  • Defensive volume. 4.29 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

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

Outlook

With a Rating of 43.4, Bidstrup carries the 12th-highest potential of the defensive midfielders in the Bundesliga (top 26%). Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (4.29 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead.
