8 clean sheets in 30 appearances (27% of games). Keeping that many behind a relegation-threatened side (10th of 12) — a side that concedes more — points to a busy, productive season between the posts.

Strengths

Availability. On the pitch for 93.8% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.

Watch points

Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 44.9, Polster carries the 4th-highest potential of the goalkeepers in the Bundesliga (top 27%), and he is posting that for a relegation-threatened side (Wolfsberger AC finished 10th of 12) — individual numbers are harder to earn on a struggling team, so his underlying level likely sits a touch above the ranking. A near ever-present keeper carrying the gloves this season. Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead.

Value & potential by age

Market valueRating

Solid = now · dashed = projected

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 (~9), then tapers with age. At 24, Polster sits on 8.7, at or near its peak. The blue line is Polster's projected Rating — 44.9 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.
