A seasoned veteran, he has been an ever-present this season (98.6% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 3.37 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Coufal.
Judged on this season alone, Coufal graded 36 — a strong campaign that ranks top 26% of the 55 full-backs in the Bundesliga, on 7 clean sheets and 3.371 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 12 → 36). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2020/21.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 38, 47th of 55 of the 55 full-backs in the Bundesliga. At 33 Coufal is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 12.7 reflects that trajectory.
Below his 2020/21 peak but holding a solid level — the platform for a return is there.
Output in context · 1899 Hoffenheim finished 5th of 18 · an upper-table side
3.37 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 7 clean sheets across 34 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (5th of 18) the side controls more games, so the defensive load is lighter — the value sits as much in composure and ball progression as in raw volume. Going forward he chipped in 1 goal and 8 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Availability. On the pitch for 98.6% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
- Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.27 goal involvements per 90, useful for a full-back.
- Pedigree. Performing in a top-tier setting (team strength 88.9/100).
Watch points
- Age curve. At 33, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
With a Rating of 37.8, Coufal carries the 47th-highest potential of the full-backs in the Bundesliga of 55. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (3.37 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90), with a bit more on the ball than most in the role. Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.7× and falling).
