An emerging talent, he has been a rotation option this season (37.1% of available minutes). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Clausen.

Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 16 → 9).
On long-term talent our Rating reads 38, top 35% of the 107 central midfielders in the 3. Liga. At 24 Clausen is in his prime years, and a market index of 7.1 reflects that trajectory.
Below his 2024/25 peak but holding a solid level — the platform for a return is there.
Output in context · Erzgebirge Aue finished 18th of 20 · a relegation-threatened side
0.78 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume, with 3 clean sheets across 31 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (18th of 20) 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. Going forward he chipped in 0 goals and 2 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 37.1% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
- Defensive numbers. Modest 0.78 defensive actions per 90 for the position.
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
With a Rating of 37.8, Clausen carries the 37th-highest potential of the central midfielders in the 3. Liga (top 35%), 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. Defensively he reads as light defensive volume (0.78 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead.
