Scout report
N. Tella is a 27-year-old winger at Bayer Leverkusen, rated 59.5 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 202nd of 323 on scout potential in the Bundesliga. In his prime years, he has been a rotation option this season (45.1% of available minutes). He brings 0.5 goal contributions per 90 (0.1 goals, 0.4 assists). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Tella.
Judged on this season alone, Tella graded 25 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 23rd of 29 of the 29 wingers in the Bundesliga, on 1 goal and 4 assists in 17 appearances (0.504 involvements per 90).
Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 22 → 25). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has trended upward, peaking in 2022/23.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 60, 25th of 29 of the 29 wingers in the Bundesliga. At 27 Tella is in his prime years, and a market index of 35.6 reflects that trajectory.
Read the appearance count in context: Tella missed 12 games through injury (injury, knee, muscle) out of roughly 34 this season. The 17 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.
Below his 2022/23 peak but holding a solid level — the platform for a return is there.
Output in context · Bayer Leverkusen finished 6th of 18 · an upper-table side
1 goal in 17 appearances (0.06 per game) — light end product the role wants to see climb. He also laid on 4 assists, so the all-round involvement reads 5 goal contributions (0.29 per appearance).
Strengths
- Final-third output. 0.5 goal contributions per 90 (0.1 goals, 0.4 assists) — productive for the role.
- Pedigree. Performing in a top-tier setting (team strength 88.3/100).
Watch points
- Game time. Only 45.1% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
Outlook
With a Rating of 59.5, Tella carries the 25th-highest potential of the wingers in the Bundesliga of 29 — though on just 17 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. In the final third he profiles as a productive contributor (0.5 goal contributions per 90). In the prime window — at or near peak market value, so the next two seasons are the ones to cash in or build around.
