Scout report

Experienced headGoalkeeper

O. Baumann is a 36-year-old goalkeeper at 1899 Hoffenheim, rated 33 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 283rd of 323 on scout potential in the Bundesliga. A seasoned veteran, he has been an ever-present this season (100% of available minutes). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Baumann.

Judged on this season alone, Baumann graded 15 — a solid campaign that ranks top 35% of the 26 goalkeepers in the Bundesliga, on 7 clean sheets across 34 appearances.

Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 4 → 15). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has trended upward, peaking in 2021/22.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 33, 16th of 26 of the 26 goalkeepers in the Bundesliga. At 36 Baumann is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 5.9 reflects that trajectory.

7 clean sheets in 34 appearances (21% of games). Playing behind an upper-table side (5th of 18) means a more protected goal, so the read is about command and distribution as much as raw shut-outs.

Strengths

  • Availability. On the pitch for 100% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
  • Pedigree. Performing in a top-tier setting (team strength 88.9/100).

Watch points

  • Age curve. At 36, 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 33, Baumann carries the 16th-highest potential of the goalkeepers in the Bundesliga of 26. A near ever-present keeper carrying the gloves this season. Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.6× and falling).
