Career report
Past his 2022/23 peak — the recent trend is downward, so buyers are paying for what's left, not what was.
Peak: 2022/23Trending downStreakyInjury-hit 2025/26
The record covers 6 seasons (2020/21–2025/26) across 2 clubs, including a move abroad — 156 appearances, 13 goals and 10 assists.
His best campaign on record is 2022/23 at VfB Stuttgart — Season rating 60, 5 goals and 4 assists in 33 games. Form has slipped 18 Season points across his last 3 full seasons. The gap to his peak is 55 Season points.
2025/26 was disrupted — 16 fixtures missed through injury or absence. A streaky profile — form has swung hard between campaigns (spread of ±24 points), so the peak and the trough are far apart.
