Scout report

Squad depthGoal-getting Centre-forward

Brenner is a 26-year-old centre-forward at FC Cincinnati, rated 35.2 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 237th of 520 on scout potential in the Major League Soccer. In his prime years, he has been a fringe squad member this season (25.9% of available minutes). He brings 0.71 goal contributions per 90 (0.61 goals, 0.1 assists). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Brenner.

Judged on this season alone, Brenner graded 18 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 42nd of 67 of the 67 centre-forwards in the Major League Soccer, on 6 goals and 1 assist in 8 appearances (0.711 involvements per 90).

Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 9 → 18). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2022/23.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 35, 29th of 67 of the 67 centre-forwards in the Major League Soccer. At 26 Brenner is in his prime years, and a market index of 6.6 reflects that trajectory.

Strengths

  • Final-third output. 0.71 goal contributions per 90 (0.61 goals, 0.1 assists) — productive for the role.

  • Game time. Only 25.9% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 35.2, Brenner carries the 29th-highest potential of the centre-forwards in the Major League Soccer of 67 — though on just 8 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. In the final third he profiles as a genuine goal threat (0.71 goal contributions per 90). In the prime window — at or near peak market value, so the next two seasons are the ones to cash in or build around.
