Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Burkardt.

Judged on this season alone, Burkardt graded 62 — a strong campaign that ranks top 17% of the 36 centre-forwards in the Bundesliga, on 13 goals and 1 assist in 22 appearances (0.94 involvements per 90).

Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 66 → 62). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has trended upward, peaking in 2024/25.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 73, top 34% of the 36 centre-forwards in the Bundesliga. At 26 Burkardt is in his prime years, and a market index of 61.4 reflects that trajectory.

Read the appearance count in context: Burkardt missed 9 games through injury (calf, injury, back bruise) out of roughly 34 this season. The 22 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.
