On long-term talent our Rating reads 81, top 32% of the 64 full-backs in the Premier League. At 26 Wieffer is in his prime years, and a market index of 98.2 reflects that trajectory.
Read the appearance count in context: Wieffer missed 10 games through injury (toe, jumpers knee, injury) out of roughly 38 this season. The 26 he did play is a solid return on the time he was fit, and his ratings are weighted toward those games rather than the ones he sat out injured.
Past his 2023/24 peak — the recent trend is downward, so buyers are paying for what's left, not what was.
