An emerging talent, he has been a rotation option this season (56.5% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 1.12 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Toppenberg.
Judged on this season alone, Toppenberg graded 28 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 7th of 13 of the 13 central midfielders in the Eerste Divisie, on 4 goals, 3 assists and 1.118 defensive actions per 90.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 54, 6th of 13 of the 13 central midfielders in the Eerste Divisie. At 23 Toppenberg is still climbing toward his ceiling, and a market index of 15.8 reflects that trajectory.
A career still climbing — Toppenberg is at his peak right now, and the curve hasn't flattened.
Output in context · Jong AZ finished 17th of 20 · a lower-table side
1.12 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume, with 3 clean sheets across 29 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (17th of 20) is harder than the bare numbers suggest: a back line under more pressure has to defend more often and protects fewer leads, so the volume — and any clean sheets — carry real weight. Going forward he chipped in 4 goals and 3 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.33 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central midfielder.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 56.5% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
- Defensive numbers. Modest 1.12 defensive actions per 90 for the position.
Outlook
With a Rating of 53.5, Toppenberg carries the 6th-highest potential of the central midfielders in the Eerste Divisie of 13, and he is posting that for a lower-table side (Jong AZ finished 17th of 20) — individual numbers are harder to earn on a struggling team, so his underlying level likely sits a touch above the ranking. Defensively he reads as light defensive volume (1.12 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead. With this floor already at 23, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.
