Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Hartjes.
Judged on this season alone, Hartjes graded 34 — a solid campaign that ranks top 40% of the 25 central midfielders in the Eredivisie, on 1 goal, 0 assists and 3.736 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 28 → 34). Across the 4 seasons we hold, it's his best return yet.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 66, top 40% of the 25 central midfielders in the Eredivisie. At 23 Hartjes is still climbing toward his ceiling, and a market index of 85 reflects that trajectory.
Read the appearance count in context: Hartjes missed 11 games through injury (jumpers knee, knee) out of roughly 34 this season. The 21 he did play is a solid return on the time he was fit, and his ratings are weighted toward those games rather than the ones he sat out injured.
Below his 2024/25 peak but holding a solid level — the platform for a return is there.
3.74 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 3 clean sheets across 21 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (13th of 18) 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 1 goal and 0 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
With a Rating of 66.4, Hartjes carries the 10th-highest potential of the central midfielders in the Eredivisie (top 40%), and he is posting that for a lower-table side (Excelsior finished 13th of 18) — 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 solid defensive volume (3.74 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.

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 (~85), then tapers with age. At 23, Hartjes sits on 85, at or near its peak. The blue line is Hartjes's projected Rating — 66.4 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.
