My Take
At 196 cm, Sobiech is built to be a wall, but what impresses me is not the height — it is the willingness to leave Germany and keep playing all the way down in South Africa with Stellenbosch. That kind of geographic courage says more about a defender than any stat line. Center-backs do the thankless work of neutralizing the other side's best, and doing it across continents takes genuine grit. I read a steady, Capricorn-like stubbornness in his career, the refusal to coast on a comfortable league. Give me a defender who travels to keep competing, and I am instantly a fan.
