A career still climbing — Baur is at his peak right now, and the curve hasn't flattened.
2.94 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 8 clean sheets across 33 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (3rd of 18) the side controls more games, so the defensive load is lighter — the value sits as much in composure and ball progression as in raw volume. Going forward he chipped in 4 goals and 5 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
With a Rating of 74.2, Baur carries the 1st-highest potential of the defensive midfielders in the 2. Bundesliga (top 3%). Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.94 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90), with a bit more on the ball than most in the role. Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 1.9×) with the best seasons likely ahead. With this floor already at 22, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.
Generated from Field Insider's rating model · AI-written analysis to follow.
The gold line is market value — an index (not €) blending rating, age and league. It climbs through the early 20s, peaks around ages 23–27 (~79), then tapers with age. At 22, Baur sits on 74.7, still climbing toward its peak. The blue line is Baur's projected Rating — 74.2 today — recomputed at each age, so it follows the same rise-and-fall as a career matures and declines. Solid = up to today; dashed = projected.
