Scout report

Squad depthBall-winning Central defender

T. Hübers is a 30-year-old central defender at 1. FC Köln, rated 32.7 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 278th of 325 on scout potential in the Bundesliga. An experienced operator, he has been a fringe squad member this season (21.9% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 4.04 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Hübers.

Judged on this season alone, Hübers graded 8 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 41st of 52 of the 52 centre-backs in the Bundesliga, on 1 clean sheet and 4.036 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 41 → 8). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2023/24.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 33, 47th of 52 of the 52 centre-backs in the Bundesliga. At 30 Hübers is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 9.8 reflects that trajectory.

Read the appearance count in context: Hübers missed 24 games through injury (knee) out of roughly 34 this season. The 8 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

4.04 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 1 clean sheet across 8 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

  • Defensive volume. 4.04 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 21.9% 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 32.7, Hübers carries the 47th-highest potential of the centre-backs in the Bundesliga of 52 — though on just 8 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (4.04 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1× now → 0.7× projected in three years).
