What Fussball-talentsuche does

Fussball-Talentsuche, operating under the brand SOCCER-PERFORM, is a German online two-sided marketplace for amateur football talent discovery. Founded in 2017 and headquartered in St. Leon-Rot, the platform enables footballers from E-Junioren (youth) through U23 level to create searchable profiles that increase their visibility to coaches, scouts, and clubs across German-speaking markets. Trainers and scouts use the platform's Spielerdatenbank (player database) with multi-criteria filters — position, league class, age year, postal code radius, and gender — to identify candidates for their teams. The company is operated by T & T Solutions GmbH, a privately held German limited liability company managed by Oliver Tropf and Jörg Tropf.

The core product is a free self-serve web platform with complementary features including the Bewerbungsmappe (PDF application portfolio generation), Anonym Modus (privacy protection for high-league players seeking confidential moves), Live Scouting event coordination, and Merkliste (coach watchlists). The underlying technology is a conventional web-based database platform with profile management, search, and PDF generation — no proprietary AI/ML capabilities, mobile apps, or public API are disclosed.

The business model combines a freemium marketplace with two monetization layers: a one-time €145 professional football consulting service (analysis questionnaire, personal video call, tailored league/club recommendations) and tiered premium player visibility placements (Platinum, Gold, Silver) featured on the homepage. The company has no external funding, no disclosed revenue, operates with 1-10 employees, and has accumulated 82M+ profile views, 80,970 generated application documents, and 700+ active coaches since inception. Branding partnerships include PUMA, Volksbank Kraichgau, and FUN 4 YOU UG.

Scale indicators6 records

Expansion highlights4 records

Broad incumbents

• Hudl: Hudl is the largest sports video analysis and recruitment platform, used across football and other sports for highlight sharing, performance analysis, and college/club recruiting. It competes with Soccer-Perform's video scouting ambitions and benefits from far greater scale and funding following its Wyscout acquisition.
• Transfermarkt: Transfermarkt is Germany's dominant football data platform with massive player databases, market values, and transfer information, plus a German-language audience that overlaps with Fussball-Talentsuche. While not a scouting marketplace, it serves the same German football talent-discovery audience and competes for coach/player attention.
• Soccerway: Soccerway is a LiveScore-owned global football data platform providing fixtures, results, player stats, and league tables across amateur and professional levels. It overlaps with Fussball-Talentsuche's football player database use case at the consumer-information end of the spectrum.
• Stats Perform: Stats Perform provides AI-driven sports data, analytics, and scouting (Opta, RunningBall) for professional sports media and teams. While aimed at professional sports data rather than amateur scouting, it represents the well-capitalized end of football intelligence that could eventually compete down-market.

Direct peers

• Wyscout (Hudl): Wyscout is a professional football scouting and video analysis platform serving clubs, agents, and federations — overlapping directly with Fussball-Talentsuche's talent discovery mission, though targeting professional rather than amateur levels. Both operate as football-specific talent-matching/data platforms with searchable player databases.
• InStat (Hudl): InStat provides professional football scouting, video, and statistical analysis to clubs and federations. Like Fussball-Talentsuche, it operates a player database and scouting service for football specifically, though at the professional rather than amateur end of the market.

Emerging players

• Spordle: Spordle is an athlete-recruitment platform connecting amateur athletes with college and club opportunities, applying similar marketplace dynamics to Fussball-Talentsuche but focused on U.S. college sports. Comparable as a two-sided sports-recruitment marketplace concept even though sport and geography differ.
• Veo Technologies: Veo Technologies offers AI-powered sports video capture and analysis used by amateur and semi-pro football clubs, enabling coaches to record, analyze, and share match footage. It competes for the same amateur/youth coach audience and represents a more capital-intensive, AI-enabled alternative to Soccer-Perform's profile-based model.

Regional players

• NCSA (Next College Student Athlete): NCSA is a U.S.-based athletic recruiting platform connecting high-school athletes with college coaches. Different geography and sport mix (U.S. college system), but operates a similar profile-database-plus-coach-search marketplace concept for amateur athletes seeking advancement.
• BeRecruitd / BeRecruited: BeRecruited is a U.S.-focused amateur athlete-recruitment network, similar in concept (free player profiles, searchable by coaches) but serving American high-school athletes seeking college opportunities rather than European football talent.
