Scout report

Squad depthCentral defender

K. Fischer is a 25-year-old central defender at VfL Wolfsburg, rated 60.5 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 169th of 320 on scout potential in the Bundesliga. In his prime years, he has been a fringe squad member this season (24.8% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 3.92 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Fischer.

Judged on this season alone, Fischer graded 9 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 53rd of 57 of the 57 centre-backs in the Bundesliga, on 1 clean sheet and 3.923 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 31 → 9). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2024/25.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 61, 26th of 57 of the 57 centre-backs in the Bundesliga. At 25 Fischer is in his prime years, and a market index of 36.2 reflects that trajectory.

Read the appearance count in context: Fischer missed 19 games through injury (thigh, ankle) out of roughly 36 this season. The 11 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.

Clean sheets

3.92 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 1 clean sheet across 11 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (16th of 18) is harder than the bare numbers suggest: a back line under more pressure has to defend more often and protects fewer leads, so the volume — and any clean sheets — carry real weight.

Strengths

  • Defensive volume. 3.92 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 24.8% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.

Outlook

With a Rating of 60.5, Fischer carries the 26th-highest potential of the centre-backs in the Bundesliga of 57 — though on just 11 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (3.92 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead. Doing it for a lesser side, he profiles as a value buy for a club higher up the table.
