1. FC Nürnberg utilizes data analytics for player scouting

1. FC Nürnberg is increasingly relying on data analytics to drive performance and player recruitment. The club's sports executive, Joti Chatzialexiou, has emphasized the importance of statistical methods in identifying undervalued players, drawing inspiration from the ‘Moneyball’ approach used in American baseball.

Since June 2025, 1. FC Nürnberg has maintained an exclusive partnership in the German market with Jamestown Analytics (JTA). This collaboration aims to professionalize scouting processes, similar to the strategies employed by other clubs such as Brighton & Hove Albion and Royale Union Saint-Gilloise.
