An emerging talent, he has been a fringe squad member this season (24.4% of available minutes). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Veratschnig.

Judged on this season alone, Veratschnig graded 5 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 57th of 58 of the 58 attacking midfielders in the Bundesliga, on 0 goals and 1 assist in 21 appearances (0.136 involvements per 90).

Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 6 → 5).

On long-term talent our Rating reads 68, 28th of 58 of the 58 attacking midfielders in the Bundesliga. At 23 Veratschnig is still climbing toward his ceiling, and a market index of 40.8 reflects that trajectory.

Read the appearance count in context: Veratschnig missed 4 games through injury (muscle, injury, illness) out of roughly 34 this season. The 21 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.

Goals / app

0 goals in 21 appearances (0 per game) — light end product the role wants to see climb. Add 1 assist for 1 goal contributions in all.

Strengths

  • Defensive volume. 4.23 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 24.4% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Output. 0.14 contributions per 90 is light for an attacking role — end product needs to climb.

Outlook

With a Rating of 68.2, Veratschnig carries the 28th-highest potential of the attacking midfielders in the Bundesliga of 58 — though on just 21 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. In the final third he profiles as a work-in-progress on end product (0.14 goal contributions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead. With this floor already at 23, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.
