Output in context · Bayer Leverkusen finished 6th of 18 · an upper-table side
4.26 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 2 clean sheets across 12 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (6th 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 1 goal and 0 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Defensive volume. 4.26 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.
- Pedigree. Performing in a top-tier setting (team strength 88.3/100).
- Ceiling. High potential at just 18 — room to grow into a bigger role.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 24.2% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
Outlook
With a Rating of 75.7, Culbreath carries the 14th-highest potential of the defensive midfielders in the Bundesliga of 55 — though on just 12 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (4.26 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). At 18 the trajectory points up — potential sits near its ceiling (100/100) and market value should climb as minutes and output follow. With this floor already at 18, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.
