@Benjamin222, in sources like this where the green from the kit or the grass is reflected onto the face, we find that the final cut looks much better if this is removed. You can do so very easily by downloading an action file from the first or second link of this post (depends if you use Photoshop or Photopea) which replicates the action shown in the below video in a single-click 😉

 

 

Edit: Also, I'm not sure how you've managed to reduce the image sharpness quite so much from the original source, but keep an eye out for it.

@Benjamin222 How are you getting on with these mate?

Not sure how useful this is - perhaps someone else might be able to figure out what I haven't. While looking for Werder Bremen youth sources I found their website's URL structure for player pictures, but unfortunately not the Filenames themselves.

The URL for the U21 team photo for example is:
https://www.werder.de/fileadmin/Fussball/Junioren/U21/Saison_22_23/SVW_U21_22-23.jpg

“U21” can be changed to U23/U19/U17/etc, and images for news and youth matches are located in the same level.

However for individual player portraits, the Filenames of the small previews on the squad page have been randomised so you can't get the full size from them. Normally when a “typo3temp” CDN is used it means you can just remove “csm_” and the ten-letter key (e.g. "69ddb00428", possibly also the bit before it e.g. “-fp-390-465-0-0_” as well) from the filename to grab the full-size.
