On long-term talent our Rating reads 75. At 22 Finkgräfe is still climbing toward his ceiling, and a market index of 117.6 reflects that trajectory.
Read the appearance count in context: Finkgräfe missed 4 games through injury (knee) out of roughly 34 this season. The 13 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.
Past his 2023/24 peak — the recent trend is downward, so buyers are paying for what's left, not what was.
4.3 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 2 clean sheets across 13 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (3rd of 18) the side controls more games, so the defensive load is lighter — the value sits as much in composure and ball progression as in raw volume. Going forward he chipped in 1 goal and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.
Rated 74.6 overall — elite — among the best in the position. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (4.3 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90), with a bit more on the ball than most in the role. Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 1.9×) with the best seasons likely ahead. With this floor already at 22, 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 (~124), then tapers with age. At 22, Finkgräfe sits on 117.6, still climbing toward its peak. The blue line is Finkgräfe's projected Rating — 74.6 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.
