Defensive numbers. Modest 1.04 defensive actions per 90 for the position.
Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 37.5, Kother carries the 12th-highest potential of the attacking midfielders in the 3. Liga of 23 — though on just 14 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. In the final third he profiles as a productive contributor (0.45 goal contributions per 90). In the prime window — at or near peak market value, so the next two seasons are the ones to cash in or build around.

The gold line is market value — an index (not €) blending rating, age and league. It climbs through the early 20s, peaks around ages 23–27 (~7), then tapers with age. At 26, Kother sits on 7, at or near its peak. The blue line is Kother's projected Rating — 37.5 today — recomputed at each age, so it follows the same rise-and-fall as a career matures and declines. Solid = up to today; dashed = projected.
