S. Ltaief is a 26-year-old central midfielder at SpVgg Greuther Fürth, rated 50.2 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 171st of 320 on scout potential in the 2. Bundesliga. In his prime years, he has been a rotation option this season (59.3% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 1.41 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Ltaief.

Judged on this season alone, Ltaief graded 24 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 19th of 38 of the 38 central midfielders in the 2. Bundesliga, on 1 goal, 1 assist and 1.406 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 12 → 24).

On long-term talent our Rating reads 50, 19th of 38 of the 38 central midfielders in the 2. Bundesliga. At 26 Ltaief is in his prime years, and a market index of 19.2 reflects that trajectory.

Read the appearance count in context: Ltaief missed 3 games through injury (injury, inactive) out of roughly 36 this season. The 15 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

1.41 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume, with 2 clean sheets across 15 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (16th 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 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.19 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central midfielder.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 59.3% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Defensive numbers. Modest 1.41 defensive actions per 90 for the position.

Outlook

With a Rating of 50.2, Ltaief carries the 19th-highest potential of the central midfielders in the 2. Bundesliga of 38, and he is posting that for a relegation-threatened side (SpVgg Greuther Fürth finished 16th 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 light defensive volume (1.41 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.
