Jan Thielmann Scout Report

Jan Thielmann, the young German winger and sometimes striker with a dash of right-back for FC Köln, has made a strong showing in the 2023-2024 Bundesliga season, with some pivotal areas standing out. His key strengths lie in his ball retention, ranking in the impressive 80th percentile, demonstrating a reliable hold on possession when on the attack. Thielmann's recovery game is also notable, sitting comfortably in the 67.5th percentile, an asset in the Bundesliga, particularly when playing as a winger or right-back. However, at 21, Thielmann leaves room for improvement. His goal efficiency is a weak spot, ranking in the discomforting low 12.5 percentile, below his relative goal threat of the 37.5 percentile. Furthermore, his assist and goal ratio per 90 minutes are at 11.84% and 10.53% respectively, which highlights a need to contribute more to the team's goal tally. His pass accuracy per 90 is also worryingly low at just 21.05%, suggesting his role would benefit from fine-tuning his distribution skills. Ultimately, the German talent promises progressive carrying and passing, but to realize his potential, enhancing his goal productivity and passing accuracy should be immediate areas of focus. Despite his youth, Thielmann has shown he can carry the pressure and expectations, but his evolution will determine if he can mature into the consistent, invaluable asset FC Köln needs.
