Felix Passlack

Felix Passlack split 2025-26 between Bochum and Hibernian, making 16 appearances without scoring before his February move and then adding 13 Premiership appearances with two goals for Hibs. For a right back, that scoring return in Scotland pointed to a player used with some attacking licence rather than a purely conservative defensive brief.

Passlack's 6.92 average rating was solid rather than standout, with a high of 8.22 and a low of 5.83. That spread suggests useful peaks but some volatility, which fits a full-back profile asked to contribute in both defensive and attacking phases.

Passlack's career path has moved from the Borussia Dortmund system, including a Dortmund II spell and a loan cycle involving Fortuna Sittard, into Bochum and then Hibernian. At 28, the trajectory reads less like a late breakthrough and more like an experienced full-back settling into a level where regular minutes were available.

The transfer record shows a pragmatic career rather than a fee-heavy one: a loan return from Fortuna Sittard, internal movement between Borussia Dortmund and Dortmund II, a free transfer to Bochum, then an undisclosed-fee move to Hibernian on 2 February 2026. The pattern suggests a step away from the Dortmund pathway into more functional first-team roles.
