Scout report
J. Hofmann is a 34-year-old attacking midfielder at Bayer Leverkusen, rated 19.2 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 321st of 325 on scout potential in the Bundesliga. A seasoned veteran, he has been a rotation option this season (35.2% of available minutes). He brings 0.36 goal contributions per 90 (0.18 goals, 0.18 assists). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Hofmann.
Judged on this season alone, Hofmann graded 17 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 47th of 58 of the 58 attacking midfielders in the Bundesliga, on 2 goals and 2 assists in 23 appearances (0.355 involvements per 90).
Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 10 → 17). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2022/23.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 19, 58th of 58 of the 58 attacking midfielders in the Bundesliga. At 34 Hofmann is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 5 reflects that trajectory.
Past his 2022/23 peak — the recent trend is downward, so buyers are paying for what's left, not what was.
