Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Sandler.
Judged on this season alone, Sandler graded 14 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 44th of 51 of the 51 centre-backs in the Eredivisie, on 3 clean sheets and 2.021 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 23 → 14). Over the 5 seasons on record his form has trended upward, peaking in 2022/23.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 46, 39th of 51 of the 51 centre-backs in the Eredivisie. At 29 Sandler is in his prime years, and a market index of 32.4 reflects that trajectory.
Below his 2022/23 peak but holding a solid level — the platform for a return is there.
2.02 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 3 clean sheets across 25 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (3rd 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 3 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
With a Rating of 46, Sandler carries the 39th-highest potential of the centre-backs in the Eredivisie of 51. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.02 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.1× now → 0.8× projected in three years).

The gold line is market value — an index (not €) blending rating, age and league. It climbs through the early 20s, peaks around ages 23–27 (~59), then tapers with age. At 29, Sandler sits on 32.4, past its peak and easing. The blue line is Sandler's projected Rating — 46 today — recomputed at each age, so it follows the same rise-and-fall as a career matures and declines. Solid = up to today; dashed = projected.
