Patrick Osterhage Scout Report
In our latest scout report, we delve into the VfL Bochum central midfielder Patrick Osterhage, who, at just 24, demonstrates impressive potential in a challenging role. A good portion of Germany's U23 talent, Osterhage is a sizable presence in the Bundesliga landscape, delivering more on the defensive front as highlighted by his high ball recovery and interception percentages, ranking better than 60% and an astounding 84% of his peers respectively. These stats position him as a reliable 'clean-up' presence within any staunch mid-field.
Despite displaying a slightly above-average goal efficiency, he tends to lag in posing a significant attack threat. His chance creation and goal threat percentages leave space for improvement, sitting around the lower third when compared to other central midfielders in the Bundesliga. Similarly, his progressive passing sits at a notably low percentile, pointing to his lack of effectiveness in launching forward plays.
Osterhage's play significantly gravitates towards the mid-field third, seen from the nearly 55% of his possessions. However, his low percentile rankings for touches and ball retention suggest a somewhat passive style of play that can hinder his ability to generate chances and assists, detracting from his overall offensive impact.
Overall, Osterhage has a robust defensive offering but has to work on aspects of his offensive gameplay. He resembles the mold of a defensive midfielder more than an attacking central midfielder and uses his age to his advantage, proving that strong defensive performances can indeed blossom from youth. His stats illustrate a player who is in the making, but not quite yet the finished article. His defensive prowess is veritable, but it's the offensive spark that needs kindling.
