L. Schuler is a 27-year-old centre-forward at Hertha BSC, rated 48.8 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 182nd of 320 on scout potential in the 2. Bundesliga. In his prime years, he has been a rotation option this season (41.3% of available minutes). He brings 0.7 goal contributions per 90 (0.62 goals, 0.08 assists). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Schuler.

Judged on this season alone, Schuler graded 32 — a solid campaign that ranks top 36% of the 39 centre-forwards in the 2. Bundesliga, on 8 goals and 1 assist in 27 appearances (0.703 involvements per 90).

Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 16 → 32). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has trended upward, peaking in 2021/22.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 49, 22nd of 39 of the 39 centre-forwards in the 2. Bundesliga. At 27 Schuler is in his prime years, and a market index of 20.1 reflects that trajectory.

Read the appearance count in context: Schuler missed 3 games through injury (fitness) out of roughly 34 this season. The 27 he did play is a solid return on the time he was fit, and his ratings are weighted toward those games rather than the ones he sat out injured.

In the prime window — at or near peak market value, so the next two seasons are the ones to cash in or build around.
