Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 27 → 51). Across the 5 seasons we hold, it's his best return yet.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 78, top 23% of the 35 central midfielders in the Bundesliga. At 25 Wimmer is in his prime years, and a market index of 50.9 reflects that trajectory.

Read the appearance count in context: Wimmer missed 7 games through injury (muscle, thigh, inactive) out of roughly 36 this season. The 25 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.
