Watch points

Output. 0.28 contributions per 90 is light for an attacking role — end product needs to climb.
Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 40, Hoppe carries the 10th-highest potential of the centre-forwards in the Superliga of 24, and he is posting that for a relegation-threatened side (Sonderjyske finished 6th of 6) — individual numbers are harder to earn on a struggling team, so his underlying level likely sits a touch above the ranking. In the final third he profiles as a work-in-progress on end product (0.28 goal contributions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead.

Solid = now · dashed = projected

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 (~8), then tapers with age. At 25, Hoppe sits on 7.6, at or near its peak. The blue line is Hoppe's projected Rating — 40 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.
