Scout report

Key starterGoalkeeper

Hugo Souza is a 27-year-old goalkeeper at Corinthians, rated 59.1 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 112th of 413 on scout potential in the Serie A. In his prime years, he has been an ever-present this season (90.8% of available minutes). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Souza.

Judged on this season alone, Souza graded 31 — a solid campaign that ranks top 35% of the 29 goalkeepers in the Serie A, on 8 clean sheets across 26 appearances.

Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 16 → 31). Across the 6 seasons we hold, it's his best return yet.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 59, top 18% of the 29 goalkeepers in the Serie A. At 27 Souza is in his prime years, and a market index of 28.1 reflects that trajectory.

Read the appearance count in context: Souza missed 9 games through injury (hamstring, inactive, yellow cards) out of roughly 38 this season. The 26 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.
