Clean sheets

4 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 3 clean sheets across 33 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (16th of 20) 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 0 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

Defensive volume. 4 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Outlook

Market valueRating

Solid = now · dashed = projected

The gold line is market value — an index (not €) blending rating, age and league. It climbs through the early 20s, peaks around ages 23–27 (~16), then tapers with age. At 22, Lührs sits on 7.2, still climbing toward its peak. The blue line is Lührs's projected Rating — 40.5 today — recomputed at each age, so it follows the same rise-and-fall as a career matures and declines. Solid = up to today; dashed = projected.
