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

Judged on this season alone, Heyer graded 18 — an excellent campaign that ranks top 8% of the 13 full-backs in the 3. Liga, on 2 clean sheets and 3.542 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 32 → 18). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2021/22.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 20, 6th of 13 of the 13 full-backs in the 3. Liga. At 31 Heyer is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 2.5 reflects that trajectory.

Clean sheets

3.54 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 2 clean sheets across 19 appearances.

Strengths

  • Defensive volume. 3.54 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 58% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Age curve. At 31, 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 20.4, Heyer carries the 6th-highest potential of the full-backs in the 3. Liga of 13. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (3.54 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.9× and falling).
