On long-term scout potential he's rated 28, ranking 328th of 436 in the Major League Soccer. An experienced operator, he has been a fringe squad member (34.6% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 7.96 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Löffelsend.
Judged on this season alone, Löffelsend graded 28 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 42nd of 54 of the 54 full-backs in the Major League Soccer, on 2 clean sheets and 7.958 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 4 → 15). Over the 4 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2022/23.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 28, 40th of 54 of the 54 full-backs in the Major League Soccer. At 28 Löffelsend is in his prime years, and a market index of 5.2 reflects that trajectory.
Below his 2022/23 peak but holding a solid level — the platform for a return is there.
Output in context · San Diego finished 11th of 15 · a lower-table side
7.96 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — high defensive volume, with 2 clean sheets across 13 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (11th of 15) 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 0 goals and 2 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.29 goal involvements per 90, useful for a full-back.
- Defensive volume. 7.96 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 34.6% 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 28, Löffelsend carries the 40th-highest potential of the full-backs in the Major League Soccer of 54 — though on just 13 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as high defensive volume (7.96 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90), with a bit more on the ball than most in the role. Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.2× now → 0.9× projected in three years).
