Scout report

Key starterCentral midfielder

S. Sebulonsen is a 26-year-old central midfielder at 1. FC Köln, rated 69.3 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 136th of 322 on scout potential in the Bundesliga. In his prime years, he has been an ever-present this season (89.8% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 2.26 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Sebulonsen.

Judged on this season alone, Sebulonsen graded 21 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 44th of 59 of the 59 central midfielders in the Bundesliga, on 0 goals, 0 assists and 2.263 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 30 → 21). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has trended upward, peaking in 2024/25.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 69, 29th of 59 of the 59 central midfielders in the Bundesliga. At 26 Sebulonsen is in his prime years, and a market index of 41.4 reflects that trajectory.

Read the appearance count in context: Sebulonsen missed 3 games through injury (muscle, yellow cards) out of roughly 34 this season. The 31 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

2.26 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 2 clean sheets across 31 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (14th 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.

Strengths

  • Availability. On the pitch for 89.8% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.

Watch points

  • Few red flags. No obvious weaknesses in the current-season profile — consistency is the next test.

Outlook

With a Rating of 69.3, Sebulonsen carries the 29th-highest potential of the central midfielders in the Bundesliga of 59, and he is posting that for a lower-table side (1. FC Köln finished 14th 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 moderate defensive volume (2.26 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.
