On long-term scout potential he's rated 14, ranking 302nd of 323 in the 3. Liga. A seasoned veteran, he has been a rotation option (52.5% of available minutes). He brings 0.4 goal contributions per 90 (0.25 goals, 0.15 assists). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Chessa.

Judged on this season alone, Chessa graded 23 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 14th of 31 of the 31 wingers in the 3. Liga, on 5 goals and 3 assists in 33 appearances (0.401 involvements per 90).

Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 21 → 23). Over the 3 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2023/24.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 14, 31st of 31 of the 31 wingers in the 3. Liga. At 33 Chessa is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 1.5 reflects that trajectory.

Goals / app

5 goals in 33 appearances (0.15 per game), a meaningful share of the load for a relegation-threatened side. He also laid on 3 assists, so the all-round involvement reads 8 goal contributions (0.24 per appearance).

Strengths

  • Final-third output. 0.4 goal contributions per 90 (0.25 goals, 0.15 assists) — productive for the role.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 52.5% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • 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 14, Chessa carries the 31st-highest potential of the wingers in the 3. Liga of 31, and he is posting that for a relegation-threatened side (SSV Ulm 1846 finished 19th of 20) — individual numbers are harder to earn on a struggling team, so his underlying level likely sits a touch above the ranking. In the final third he profiles as a productive contributor (0.4 goal contributions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.7× and falling).
