Strengths

  • Defensive volume. 3.68 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.
  • Ceiling. High potential at just 19 — room to grow into a bigger role.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 58.5% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.

Outlook

With a Rating of 77.9, Banks carries the 6th-highest potential of the centre-backs in the Bundesliga (top 12%). Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (3.68 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). At 19 the trajectory points up — potential sits near its ceiling (99/100) and market value should climb as minutes and output follow. With this floor already at 19, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.
