Maximilian Bauer Scout Report

Maximilian Bauer, currently honing his skills with Kaiserslautern after a stint at Augsburg, is a centre-back who embodies the classic defensive archetype with a modern twist. At 24, he's starting to hit his stride in the Bundesliga. Bauer's style of play is heavily anchored in defensive robustness—he's exceptionally reliable in duels, boasting one of the highest win percentages in his league bracket. His prowess in aerial battles complements this, though it's his remarkable ability to resist pressure and pass progressively that sets him apart, underscoring his potential as a ball-playing defender. However, his ball retention skills need improvement, evidenced by a worryingly low pass accuracy, which could sometimes leave his team vulnerable during transitions. He's more comfortable in the midfield than most, as his activity suggests, aiding his team in launching plays from the back, although he does occasionally stray into less controlled territory with fouls. His positioning often sees him rooted in his defensive third, which aligns with a modest ball recovery rate and scant interception work. All in all, Bauer is a solid defensive presence with key attributes that, if refined, could see him rise further in the ranks of German defenders.
