On long-term talent our Rating reads 74, top 36% of the 59 central midfielders in the Bundesliga. At 26 Elmas is in his prime years, and a market index of 43.9 reflects that trajectory.

Output in context · RB Leipzig finished 3rd of 18 · an upper-table side
1.86 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume, with 8 clean sheets across 33 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (3rd 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 3 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Availability. On the pitch for 60.2% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
- Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.2 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central midfielder.
- Pedigree. Performing in a top-tier setting (team strength 92.5/100).
Watch points
- Defensive numbers. Modest 1.86 defensive actions per 90 for the position.
Outlook
With a Rating of 73.5, Elmas carries the 21st-highest potential of the central midfielders in the Bundesliga (top 36%). Defensively he reads as light defensive volume (1.86 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90), with a bit more on the ball than most in the role. In the prime window — at or near peak market value, so the next two seasons are the ones to cash in or build around.
