Scout report

Experienced headGoalkeeper

J. Lynch is a 33-year-old goalkeeper at Fleetwood Town, rated 15.1 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 185th of 221 on scout potential in the League Two. A seasoned veteran, he has been an ever-present this season (100% of available minutes). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Lynch.

Judged on this season alone, Lynch graded 11 — a solid campaign that ranks top 32% of the 25 goalkeepers in the League Two, on 9 clean sheets across 46 appearances.

Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 11 → 11). Over the 7 seasons on record his form has trended upward, peaking in 2022/23.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 15, 18th of 25 of the 25 goalkeepers in the League Two. At 33 Lynch is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 0.7 reflects that trajectory.

9 clean sheets in 46 appearances (20% of games).

Strengths

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

Watch points

  • 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 15.1, Lynch carries the 18th-highest potential of the goalkeepers in the League Two of 25. A near ever-present keeper carrying the gloves this season. Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.7× and falling).
