In his prime years, he has been a rotation option this season (40.8% of available minutes). He brings 0.22 goal contributions per 90 (0.14 goals, 0.07 assists). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Bätzner.

Judged on this season alone, Bätzner graded 13 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 40th of 48 of the 48 attacking midfielders in the 2. Bundesliga, on 2 goals and 1 assist in 30 appearances (0.217 involvements per 90).

2 goals in 30 appearances (0.07 per game) — light end product the role wants to see climb. Add 1 assist for 3 goal contributions in all.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 40.8% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Output. 0.22 contributions per 90 is light for an attacking role — end product needs to climb.

Outlook

With a Rating of 52.7, Bätzner carries the 26th-highest potential of the attacking midfielders in the 2. Bundesliga of 48. In the final third he profiles as a work-in-progress on end product (0.22 goal contributions per 90). In the prime window — at or near peak market value, so the next two seasons are the ones to cash in or build around.
