Sven Michel

Sven Michel

Sven Michel attacks space and times runs to break behind the line, using pace to threaten the back line. From 2016 to 2022, Michel starred for SC Paderborn, scoring 66 goals in over 170 appearances and helping promotion. He thrives on counter-attacks. In Jan 2022, Sven Michel joined Union Berlin and played in the Europa League. In 2023 he moved to FC Augsburg before returning to SC Paderborn in July 2024. As a forward, he links play with one-touch layoffs and presses high to win the ball. Michel finishes moves and gets shots off quickly after timing runs. Sven Michel remains a constant goal threat, attacking space and pinning centre-backs.
