Clean sheets

3.65 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 8 clean sheets across 31 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (5th of 18) the side controls more games, so the defensive load is lighter — the value sits as much in composure and ball progression as in raw volume. Going forward he chipped in 1 goal and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Availability. On the pitch for 84.6% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
  • Defensive volume. 3.65 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 53.8, Pfeiffer carries the 5th-highest potential of the centre-backs in the 2. Bundesliga (top 24%). Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (3.65 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.
