A seasoned veteran, he has been a regular starter this season (67.4% of available minutes). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Dawson.

Judged on this season alone, Dawson graded 12 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 5th of 10 of the 10 goalkeepers in the League One, on 7 clean sheets across 31 appearances.

Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 5 → 12). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has trended upward, peaking in 2022/23.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 23, 5th of 10 of the 10 goalkeepers in the League One. At 31 Dawson is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 2.3 reflects that trajectory.

7 clean sheets in 31 appearances (23% of games). Keeping that many behind a relegation-threatened side (23rd of 24) — a side that concedes more — points to a busy, productive season between the posts.

Strengths

  • Availability. On the pitch for 67.4% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.

Watch points

  • Age curve. At 31, 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 22.7, Dawson carries the 5th-highest potential of the goalkeepers in the League One of 10, and he is posting that for a relegation-threatened side (Rotherham finished 23rd of 24) — individual numbers are harder to earn on a struggling team, so his underlying level likely sits a touch above the ranking. A a regular starter keeper carrying the gloves this season. Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.9× and falling).
