Judged on this season alone, Hoedt graded 29 — an excellent campaign that ranks top 9% of the 24 centre-backs in the Pro League, on 7 clean sheets and 2.858 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 40 → 29). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has trended upward, peaking in 2023/24.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 27, 16th of 24 of the 24 centre-backs in the Pro League. At 32 Hoedt is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 5.4 reflects that trajectory.
Past his 2023/24 peak — the recent trend is downward, so buyers are paying for what's left, not what was.
Output in context · Al Shabab finished 13th of 18 · a lower-table side
2.86 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 7 clean sheets across 32 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.
Strengths
- Availability. On the pitch for 93.7% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
Watch points
- Age curve. At 32, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
With a Rating of 27.3, Hoedt carries the 16th-highest potential of the centre-backs in the Pro League of 24, and he is posting that for a lower-table side (Al Shabab 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 moderate defensive volume (2.86 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.8× and falling).
