Minutes

10 clean sheets in 41 appearances (24% of games). Playing behind an upper-table side (5th of 18) means a more protected goal, so the read is about command and distribution as much as raw shut-outs.

Strengths

Availability. On the pitch for 100% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.

Watch points

Age curve. At 32, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

Rated 30.9 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 (0.8× and falling).

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 (~10), then tapers with age. At 32, Roef sits on 3.9, past its peak and easing. The blue line is Roef's projected Rating — 30.9 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.
