On long-term talent our Rating reads 56, 22nd of 48 of the 48 attacking midfielders in the 2. Bundesliga. At 25 Appelkamp is in his prime years, and a market index of 21.3 reflects that trajectory.
Past his 2022/23 peak — the recent trend is downward, so buyers are paying for what's left, not what was.
Output in context · Fortuna Düsseldorf finished 17th of 18 · a relegation-threatened side
2 goals in 27 appearances (0.07 per game) — light end product the role wants to see climb. He also laid on 4 assists, so the all-round involvement reads 6 goal contributions (0.22 per appearance).
Strengths
- Availability. On the pitch for 60.3% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
Watch points
- Output. 0.29 contributions per 90 is light for an attacking role — end product needs to climb.
- Defensive numbers. Modest 1.41 defensive actions per 90 for the position.
Outlook
With a Rating of 55.8, Appelkamp carries the 22nd-highest potential of the attacking midfielders in the 2. Bundesliga of 48, and he is posting that for a relegation-threatened side (Fortuna Düsseldorf finished 17th of 18) — individual numbers are harder to earn on a struggling team, so his underlying level likely sits a touch above the ranking. In the final third he profiles as a work-in-progress on end product (0.29 goal contributions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead. Doing it for a lesser side, he profiles as a value buy for a club higher up the table.
