Scout report

Experienced headGoalkeeper

H. Van Crombrugge is a 33-year-old goalkeeper at Genk, rated 14.4 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 75th of 75 on scout potential in the Jupiler Pro League. A seasoned veteran, he has been a fringe squad member this season (29.3% of available minutes). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Crombrugge.

Judged on this season alone, Crombrugge graded 6 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 10th of 12 of the 12 goalkeepers in the Jupiler Pro League, on 3 clean sheets across 12 appearances.

Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 16 → 6). Over the 5 seasons on record his form has held fairly steady, peaking in 2021/22.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 14, 12th of 12 of the 12 goalkeepers in the Jupiler Pro League. At 33 Crombrugge is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 1.6 reflects that trajectory.

3 clean sheets in 12 appearances (25% of games).

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 29.3% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • 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 14.4, Crombrugge carries the 12th-highest potential of the goalkeepers in the Jupiler Pro League of 12 — though on just 12 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 (0.7× and falling).
