On long-term scout potential he's rated 10.5, ranking 254th of 264 in the 3. Liga. A seasoned veteran, he has been a rotation option (40.5% of available minutes). He brings 0.39 goal contributions per 90 (0.33 goals, 0.07 assists). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Bär.
Judged on this season alone, Bär graded 18 — a solid campaign that ranks top 35% of the 23 centre-forwards in the 3. Liga, on 5 goals and 1 assist in 22 appearances (0.39 involvements per 90).
Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 19 → 18). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has held fairly steady, peaking in 2021/22.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 11, 21st of 23 of the 23 centre-forwards in the 3. Liga. At 34 Bär is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 1 reflects that trajectory.
Past his 2021/22 peak — the recent trend is downward, so buyers are paying for what's left, not what was.
Output in context · Erzgebirge Aue finished 18th of 20 · a relegation-threatened side
5 goals in 22 appearances (0.23 per game), a meaningful share of the load for a relegation-threatened side. Add 1 assist for 6 goal contributions in all.
Strengths
- Final-third output. 0.39 goal contributions per 90 (0.33 goals, 0.07 assists) — productive for the role.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 40.5% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
- Age curve. At 34, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
With a Rating of 10.5, Bär carries the 21st-highest potential of the centre-forwards in the 3. Liga of 23, and he is posting that for a relegation-threatened side (Erzgebirge Aue finished 18th of 20) — 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 productive contributor (0.39 goal contributions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.6× and falling).
