Marcel Hartel - Soccer News, Rumors, & Updates

Only lacking end product Hartel took four shots (one on goal), crossed four times inaccurately and created three chances during Saturday's 3-0 win over Austin FC.

Impact Hartel was held off the scoresheet, but not from a lack of effort as he led St. Louis in shots, crosses and chances created during the victory. The attacker has combined for eight shots, six chances created and eight crosses over his last three appearances but hasn't had a goal involvement since April 26th.

Illness clears for Open Cup Hartel (illness) returned to the starting lineup Tuesday in the Open Cup quarter-final against Houston Dynamo and scored two goals, according to the club.

Impact Hartel had missed Saturday's match against DC United due to the illness, making his return to the starting eleven a positive development for St. Louis. The German midfielder has been one of the club's more creative options in the engine room this season, and his brace against Houston underlined his importance to the side after the brief spell on the sidelines.

Illness could lead to sidelines Hartel is questionable for Saturday's match against D.C. United due to illness, per the MLS Player Status Report.

Impact Hartel will need some late testing ahead of the next contest, due to an illness that has him uncertain for Saturday. He's been one of St. Louis's more creative midfield options and a player with legitimate fantasy value when healthy and starting, making his questionable status one of the more consequential on the report for STLCSC fantasy managers. If he were to miss out, with Cecrid Teuchert or Sergio Cordova as possible replacements.

Strong stat line offensively Hartel recorded four shots (one on goal), five crosses (two accurate) and four corners in Sunday's 2-0 loss against Austin FC.

Impact Hartel did everything but score or assist in Sunday's match, as the midfielder was putting shots up and providing service. He has a good matchup looming against Colorado Rapids and should be more fortunate in the final third if he can keep up this volume in that contest.

Leader in shots, chances created Hartel took four shots (two on goal), crossed five times (two accurate) and created a chance during Saturday's 1-1 draw with Dallas.

Impact Hartel was held off the scoresheet but led St. Louis in shots and chances created during the draw. The attacker has a goal to go along with 11 shots and 10 crosses over his last three appearances as he maintains a role on corner kicks.

APRIL 12 • ROTOWIRE

Scores against Revs Hartel scored one goal to go with three shots (two on goal), three crosses (zero accurate) and three corners in Saturday's 3-1 win versus New England Revolution.

Impact Hartel intercepted a poor pass from a defender and quickly unleashed a long-range effort to increase the home side's lead in the 83rd minute of the game. Other than that, he completed 83 percent of his passes while playing in a central attacking midfield position. He has been very busy near the opposing goal, totaling 14 shots (nine on target), 25 crosses (five accurate) and two goals over four 90-minute outings. Additionally, he's the squad's top set-piece taker with 22 corner or free kick crosses so far.

MARCH 24 • ROTOWIRE

Four shots in defeat Hartel registered four shots (one on goal), nine crosses (three accurate) and five corners in Saturday's 2-0 defeat to Los Angeles Football Club.

Impact Hartel worked as one of St. Louis' main linking pieces in Saturday's loss against the Black and Gold, helping the visitors control first-half possession while keeping LAFC largely quiet before the break. Operating underneath the striker, he gave St. Louis some rhythm between the lines, but the decisive final ball and a clean look at goal never quite materialized. Once LAFC broke the deadlock, the match stretched out and his influence faded as St. Louis pushed forward chasing the game. He still logged four shots, two chances created and delivered solid service on set pieces with five corners and nine crosses. Hartel now sits on one goal through three appearances this season.

MARCH 15 • ROTOWIRE

Leads St. Louis attack Hartel generated three shots (two on goal), eight crosses (one accurate) and five corners in Saturday's 1-0 defeat versus Seattle Sounders FC.

Impact Hartel's three shot attempts (two on goal) and five corners Saturday each led the St. Louis City attacking effort. However, the veteran midfielder could not pick the lock of the Seattle defense in St. Louis City's 1-0 home loss. Hartel appears to have an iron grip on St. Louis's set piece opportunities, as he has created seven chances from 11 corners over his first two appearances (two starts) of 2026.

MARCH 9 • ROTOWIRE

Returns to starting XI Saturday Hartel (personal) is in the starting lineup for Saturday's contest against Seattle Sounders.

Impact Hartel missed the previous match due to the birth of his child but rejoined the squad quickly ahead of the round three game. His inclusion will push Miguel Perez to a substitute role, which is likely to remain the case for the rest of the season. During his last appearance, Hartel scored a goal and took most of his team's set pieces.

MARCH 7 • ROTOWIRE

Out Sunday due to childbirth Hartel is not with the squad for Sunday's visit to San Diego while he anticipates the birth of his child, Matt Baker of Flyover Footy reports.

Impact Hartel was an unexpected absence in St. Louis' starting lineup, with Miguel Perez taking his place for this match. While the experienced midfielder shouldn't be out for a long time, his absence leaves the team without its top playmaker and set-piece taker. He has scored one goal and recorded 90 minutes of play in his lone appearance of 2026 so far.

MARCH 1 • ROTOWIRE

Breaks deadlock Saturday Hartel scored one goal to go with four shots (four on goal), five crosses (one accurate) and six corners in Saturday's 1-1 draw versus Charlotte FC.

Impact Hartel took advantage of a great through ball from Simon Becher to open the scoring for St. Louis City, and his comfortable finish past Kristijan Kahlina gave the team a lead they wouldn't be able to hold. Hartel bagged nine goals and three assists in 2025, and he's started the new season on a strong note. He figures to play a big role for St. Louis City SC in 2025.

Breaks double-digits Hartel scored nine goals and added three assists in 34 starts in 2025.

Impact Hartel didn't live up to his incredible 2024, at least as far as efficiency goes. He did improve his raw totals, but he played almost four times as many matches. The midfielder will be back in 2026 as a huge part of the starting XI and is hoping for better talent around him to build on an absurd 98 chances created that turned into just three assists.

Nets brace in win Hartel scored two goals off five shots (three on target), created four chances and sent in five crosses (one accurate) during Saturday's 3-1 win over Austin.

Impact Hartel was an easy pick for man of the match here as he opened the scoring with a spectacular long-range finish in the 28th minute then put his team ahead again just before halftime and even found time to put his teammates in scoring position multiple times. After a very disappointing first half of the season, the attacker is finally thriving with St. Louis, with four goals off 11 shots, one assist and 10 chances created over his last four starts.
