Xaver Schlager

Seventeen tackles across five Premier League appearances in 2026/27 place Xaver Schlager among the busiest ball-winners at Nottingham Forest. The midfielder has started four of those games, playing 376 minutes, and an average match rating of 6.95 reflects a steady contribution without a goal or assist.
Born in Linz on 28 September 1997, the 28-year-old Austrian stands 174 centimetres and weighs 76 kilograms. He wears the number 21, has taken four shots and completed four successful dribbles, with one key pass and one yellow card to his name. A sending-off has not come his way this season.
