🐣 This week’s rising star: Kennet Eichhorn 🇩🇪 | OneFootball

As every week, OneFootball shines a spotlight on a young talent on the rise.

This time, we head to Berlin, where Kennet Eichhorn, the German defensive midfielder for Hertha Berlin, is already impressing in the German second division at just 16 years old.

Trained at the club, the defensive midfielder made history by becoming the youngest player ever in Bundesliga 2, at 16 years and 14 days old. A strong sign of confidence for a player who impresses with his maturity.

Left-footed, intelligent in his positioning, and very technically sound, Eichhorn stands out for his composure and his ability to organize play despite his young age.

This German U17 international already embodies the future of the Berlin club in its quest to return to the first division.

But beyond the symbolism, his first minutes have confirmed his potential: constant activity, accuracy in passing, and real personality in duels. At 16, he doesn’t struggle with the pace. He matches it.

Still in the learning phase, Kennet Eichhorn perfectly embodies the new generation of defensive midfielders, combining tactical intelligence and technical maturity. A name to remember for the future of German and European football.
