Timo Werner - Ends season as starter Werner registered one shot (one on target) in Saturday's 4-2 victory against Schalke.

Impact Werner was able to return for the last match of the season after missing the last game with an illness. Since returning to the club, the forward has scored 11 goals with four assists in 35 appearances in all competitions. However, this is far lower from his total back in 2019 with Leipzig after scoring 28 goals, second most that season. He will look to produce more goals for the 2023/24 campaign now that Christopher Nkunku is expected to leave the club this summer.

Willi Orban - Own goal in win Orban registered an own goal and four clearances in Saturday's 4-2 victory over Schalke.

Impact Orban scored an own goal Saturday, but luckily his team was able to score four goals to take the win over Schalke. He's been the heart of the defense for the team, missing just one match all season while making 41 appearances in all competitions, averaging about 3.5 clearances a game with 153. The defender will likely remain the starting center back for the 2023/24 season if he can keep his form heading into preseason camp.

Yussuf Poulsen - Scores in win Poulsen scored one goal to go with three shots (one on target) in Saturday's 4-2 win against Schalke.

Impact Poulsen came off the bench to score his second goal of the year. He's mainly been used as a bench player this season, making three starts in 34 starts in all competitions, totaling two goals and an assist. With Christopher Nkunku's future up in the air, Poulsen could fight for starting role during preseason camp for the 2023/24 campaign.

Christopher Nkunku - Wins golden boot Nkunku scored two goals and assisted once from five shots and two chances created in Saturday's 4-2 victory over Schalke. In addition, he was given a yellow card in the 95th minute...

Impact With a brace Saturday, Nkunku will share the golden boot with Nick Fullkrug with 16 on the season. Despite scoring 20 goals last season, he was only fourth in the golden boot race. The forward also had missed two months with injuries. He will end the campaign averaging 2.5 shots a game with 19 goals in all competitions. Despite two more years left on his contract, he has been linked to a move to Chelsea in the summer, leaving his future on the team in big doubt.
