Scout report

Rising assetAttacking midfielder

O. Schwartau is a 20-year-old attacking midfielder at Norwich, rated 71.8 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 30th of 493 on scout potential in the Championship and 97th of 994 U-21 players tracked. A young player, he has been a regular starter this season (62.2% of available minutes). He brings 0.26 goal contributions per 90 (0.17 goals, 0.09 assists). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Schwartau.

Judged on this season alone, Schwartau graded 24 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 35th of 69 of the 69 attacking midfielders in the Championship, on 4 goals and 2 assists in 34 appearances (0.261 involvements per 90).

Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 5 → 24). Across the 4 seasons we hold, it's his best return yet.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 72, top 16% of the 69 attacking midfielders in the Championship. At 20 Schwartau is still climbing toward his ceiling, and a market index of 28.1 reflects that trajectory.

Read the appearance count in context: Schwartau missed 9 games through injury (hamstring, inactive) out of roughly 46 this season. The 34 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.

Goals / app

4 goals in 34 appearances (0.12 per game) — light end product the role wants to see climb. Add 2 assists for 6 goal contributions in all.

Strengths

  • Availability. On the pitch for 62.2% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
  • Ceiling. High potential at just 20 — room to grow into a bigger role.

Watch points

  • Output. 0.26 contributions per 90 is light for an attacking role — end product needs to climb.

Outlook

With a Rating of 71.8, Schwartau carries the 11th-highest potential of the attacking midfielders in the Championship (top 16%). In the final third he profiles as a work-in-progress on end product (0.26 goal contributions per 90). At 20 the trajectory points up — potential sits near its ceiling (98/100) and market value should climb as minutes and output follow. With this floor already at 20, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.
