Fabian Schär

Fabian Schär is Newcastle United’s Gold Wall, an established presence in one of the world’s most demanding divisions. With six career trophies to his name—including three league titles and a recent domestic cup triumph—the Swiss international provides a wealth of experience to a side navigating the high Stakes of English football.

Throughout 16 appearances this season, Schär has proven why he remains a Gold tier asset, serving as the main defensive card in half of those outings. His profile is that of a pure specialist, where a Defense rating of 64 anchors his overall contribution. Data highlights his reading of the game, averaging 1.5 interceptions per 90 to earn his INTERCEPTOR badge, while a SHIELD badge reflects his 1.0 blocks per 90 minutes. Despite his veteran status, he is hitting top form with a performance trend that is on an upward trajectory. His influence extends beyond pure stopping; with 76 touches per 90, he acts as a MAGNET for the ball, ensuring Newcastle maintains Balance during build-up play across his 1,091 minutes on the pitch.

While his market value of €7M shows a falling trend due to his age, his reliability remains unquestioned. In a league where composure is a premium, Schär’s ability to maintain a high level of performance makes him an invaluable asset for the Magpies' defensive structure.
