Patrick Ittrich is a German football referee born in Hamburg, Germany on 3 January 1979. He made his Bundesliga debut on 13 February 2016. Ittrich is a police officer and is widely respected for his communication and on-field decision-making. He is part of the current Bundesliga officiating pool and is regularly relevant for pre-match analysis, appointment previews and VAR-focused discussion.
In the 2025/26 Bundesliga season, Ittrich has officiated 7 league matches, averaging 18.00 fouls, 0.29 penalties, 2.86 yellow cards and 0.00 red cards per game. Those numbers point to a more measured and lower-card profile, with a comparatively lighter whistle in open play, a relatively restrained yellow-card average, and no red cards in his Bundesliga sample so far. For The VAR Verdict, that statistical snapshot helps readers understand the disciplinary threshold and general tone he has shown this season.
