Scout report
P. Sontheimer is a 28-year-old central midfielder at FC Saarbrücken, rated 27 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 191st of 264 on scout potential in the 3. Liga. An experienced operator, he has been a rotation option this season (40.5% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 2.54 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Sontheimer.
Judged on this season alone, Sontheimer graded 13 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 50th of 94 of the 94 central midfielders in the 3. Liga, on 1 goal, 0 assists and 2.536 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 24 → 13). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2022/23.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 27, 69th of 94 of the 94 central midfielders in the 3. Liga. At 28 Sontheimer is in his prime years, and a market index of 3 reflects that trajectory.
Below his 2022/23 peak but holding a solid level — the platform for a return is there.
Output in context · FC Saarbrücken finished 15th of 20 · a lower-table side
2.54 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 3 clean sheets across 20 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (15th of 20) 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 0 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 40.5% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
With a Rating of 27, Sontheimer carries the 69th-highest potential of the central midfielders in the 3. Liga of 94, and he is posting that for a lower-table side (FC Saarbrücken finished 15th of 20) — 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 moderate defensive volume (2.54 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.2× now → 0.9× projected in three years).
