Key strength: Shot-stopping
Shot-stopper
At 32, German goalkeeper Carl Klaus finds himself in the shadows at 1.FC Union Berlin, watching from the sidelines as Die Eisernen navigate a turbulent campaign. With Union sitting 10th in the table and weathering a rough patch of form—just one draw from their last four matches—the veteran shot-stopper remains a reliable presence in the squad, even if his opportunities have been limited. Klaus's €350,000 market value reflects his role as experienced cover rather than first-choice, locked in a three-way battle with Frederik Rönnow and Matheo Raab for the gloves. While his season stats remain empty, the 70-rated keeper provides crucial depth and German experience to a Union side fighting to stabilize their season. In a campaign where Union's defensive unit—anchored by centre-backs Leopold Querfeld, Danilho Doekhi, and Diogo Leite—has been tested, Klaus represents the unsung professional ready when called upon.
