Outlook

With a Rating of 25.9, Yongyong carries the 7th-highest potential of the centre-forwards in the Super League of 28 — though on just 1 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. In the final third he profiles as a work-in-progress on end product (0.24 goal contributions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.2× now → 0.9× projected in three years).

Market valueRating

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 (~4), then tapers with age. At 28, Yongyong sits on 2.6, past its peak and easing. The blue line is Yongyong's projected Rating — 25.9 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.
