Experienced headGoalkeeper

David de Gea is a 35-year-old goalkeeper at Fiorentina, rated 31.4 overall by Field Insider's model. A seasoned veteran, he has been an ever-present this season (97.4% of available minutes). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Gea.

On the season, Gea graded 26 for current form (age-blind), on 10 clean sheets across 37 appearances.

Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 26 → 26). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2022/23.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 31. At 35 Gea is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 8 reflects that trajectory.

10 clean sheets in 37 appearances (27% of games). Keeping that many behind a lower-table side (15th of 20) — a side that concedes more — points to a busy, productive season between the posts.

Strengths

  • Availability. On the pitch for 97.4% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.

Watch points

  • Age curve. At 35, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

Rated 31.4 overall — below regular-starter level. A near ever-present keeper carrying the gloves this season. Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.6× and falling).
