Scout report
D. Schmidt is a 34-year-old goalkeeper at Nagoya Grampus, rated 9.7 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 366th of 377 on scout potential in the J1 League. A seasoned veteran, he has been a fringe squad member this season (21.9% of available minutes). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Schmidt.
Judged on this season alone, Schmidt graded 2 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 28th of 31 of the 31 goalkeepers in the J1 League, on 1 clean sheet across 7 appearances.
Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 0 → 2). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2021/22.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 10, 28th of 31 of the 31 goalkeepers in the J1 League. At 34 Schmidt is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 0.8 reflects that trajectory.
Read the appearance count in context: Schmidt missed 6 games through injury (muscle bruise, hip, injury) out of roughly 38 this season. The 7 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 2021/22 peak — the recent trend is downward, so buyers are paying for what's left, not what was.
Output in context · Nagoya Grampus finished 16th of 20 · a lower-table side
1 clean sheet in 7 appearances (14% of games). Keeping that many behind a lower-table side (16th of 20) — a side that concedes more — points to a busy, productive season between the posts.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 21.9% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
- Age curve. At 34, 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 9.7, Schmidt carries the 28th-highest potential of the goalkeepers in the J1 League of 31 — though on just 7 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. A limited game time keeper carrying the gloves this season. Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.6× and falling).
