Scout report
S. Hoskins is a 33-year-old centre-forward at Northampton, enjoying a standout season — 6 goals and 0 assists in 42 appearances, a Season grade of 20, top 60% of League One centre-forwards. On long-term scout potential he's rated 16.9, ranking 437th of 481 in the League One. A seasoned veteran, he has been a regular starter (69.7% of available minutes). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Hoskins.
Judged on this season alone, Hoskins graded 20 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 36th of 60 of the 60 centre-forwards in the League One, on 6 goals and 0 assists in 42 appearances (0.187 involvements per 90).
Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 23 → 20). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2022/23.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 17, 49th of 60 of the 60 centre-forwards in the League One. At 33 Hoskins is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 2.2 reflects that trajectory.
Past his 2022/23 peak — the recent trend is downward, so buyers are paying for what's left, not what was.
Output in context · Northampton finished 24th of 24 · a relegation-threatened side
6 goals in 42 appearances (0.14 per game), a meaningful share of the load for a relegation-threatened side.
Strengths
- Availability. On the pitch for 69.7% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
Watch points
- Output. 0.19 contributions per 90 is light for an attacking role — end product needs to climb.
- Age curve. At 33, 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 16.9, Hoskins carries the 49th-highest potential of the centre-forwards in the League One of 60, and he is posting that for a relegation-threatened side (Northampton finished 24th of 24) — 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 (0.19 goal contributions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.7× and falling).
