Scout report

Key starterFull-back

O. Deman is a 26-year-old full-back at Werder Bremen, rated 66.6 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 154th of 325 on scout potential in the Bundesliga. In his prime years, he has been a regular starter this season (63.4% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 3.87 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Deman.

Judged on this season alone, Deman graded 24 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 30th of 55 of the 55 full-backs in the Bundesliga, on 2 clean sheets and 3.873 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 27 → 24). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has trended upward, peaking in 2022/23.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 67, 30th of 55 of the 55 full-backs in the Bundesliga. At 26 Deman is in his prime years, and a market index of 39.8 reflects that trajectory.

Read the appearance count in context: Deman missed 12 games through injury (ankle, sprained ankle) out of roughly 34 this season. The 16 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.

Clean sheets

3.87 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 2 clean sheets across 16 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (15th of 18) 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 1 goal and 2 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Availability. On the pitch for 63.4% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
  • Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.21 goal involvements per 90, useful for a full-back.
  • Defensive volume. 3.87 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

  • Few red flags. No obvious weaknesses in the current-season profile — consistency is the next test.

Outlook

With a Rating of 66.6, Deman carries the 30th-highest potential of the full-backs in the Bundesliga of 55, and he is posting that for a lower-table side (Werder Bremen finished 15th of 18) — 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 solid defensive volume (3.87 tackles, blocks & interceptions 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. Doing it for a lesser side, he profiles as a value buy for a club higher up the table.
