0 goals in 29 appearances (0 per game) — light end product the role wants to see climb. Add 1 assist for 1 goal contributions in all.

Strengths

  • Availability. On the pitch for 66.2% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.

Watch points

  • Output. 0.05 contributions per 90 is light for an attacking role — end product needs to climb.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 42.5, Mayer carries the 9th-highest potential of the attacking midfielders in the Bundesliga (top 34%), and he is posting that for a relegation-threatened side (FC BW Linz finished 12th of 12) — 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 work-in-progress on end product (0.05 goal contributions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 1.9×) with the best seasons likely ahead.
