Playing Style Analysis

Sweeper-Keeper

A Sweeper-Keeper. Statistically, he stands out as dominant in aerial duels (96% success) and commands the box with authority (0.5 punches/90). The three most similar players to Timon Wellenreuther by playing style are:

  • Mark Flekken(87% match)A Traditional Keeper. Statistically, he stands out as comfortable with both feet, dominant in aerial duels (100% success) and reliable in goal (3.2 saves/90). However, he concedes frequently (1.57/90).
  • Joël Drommel(87% match)A Sweeper-Keeper. Statistically, he stands out as dominant in aerial duels (100% success), penetrates with forward passing (10.5 final-third passes/90) and exceptionally busy shot-stopper (4.2 saves/90). However, he concedes frequently (1.79/90).
  • Matej Kovar(87% match)Kovar is the kind of goalkeeper who makes a pressing coach sleep soundly—a sweeper-keeper with the spatial awareness to act as an eleventh outfielder without the recklessness that usually comes with the territory. His pass volume of 39.5 per 90 sits above the Eredivisie average, and his passes into the final third rank similarly well, suggesting a keeper actively involved in building rather than merely recycling. The counterintuitive detail is his interception rate—top 20% in the league—a number that quietly reveals how far off his line he operates and how consistently he reads danger before it materialises.
