N. Fichtinger is a 22-year-old defensive midfielder at PEC Zwolle, rated 59.7 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 161st of 284 on scout potential in the Eredivisie and 689th of 2874 U-23 players tracked. An emerging talent, he has been a fringe squad member this season (25.7% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 8.03 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Fichtinger.
Judged on this season alone, Fichtinger graded 18 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 37th of 41 of the 41 defensive midfielders in the Eredivisie, on 0 goals, 1 assist and 8.031 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 13 → 18). Across the 3 seasons we hold, it's his best return yet.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 60, 27th of 41 of the 41 defensive midfielders in the Eredivisie. At 22 Fichtinger is still climbing toward his ceiling, and a market index of 26.1 reflects that trajectory.
Fichtinger is operating at his career peak — the 2025/26 level is the level.
Output in context · PEC Zwolle finished 15th of 18 · a lower-table side
8.03 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — high defensive volume, with 1 clean sheet across 20 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (15th of 18) is harder than the bare numbers suggest: a back line under more pressure has to defend more often and protects fewer leads, so the volume — and any clean sheets — carry real weight. Going forward he chipped in 0 goals and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Defensive volume. 8.03 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.
- Ceiling. High potential at just 22 — room to grow into a bigger role.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 25.7% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
Outlook
With a Rating of 59.7, Fichtinger carries the 27th-highest potential of the defensive midfielders in the Eredivisie of 41 — though on just 20 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as high defensive volume (8.03 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 1.9×) with the best seasons likely ahead. With this floor already at 22, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.
