Scout report
J. Stockley is a 32-year-old centre-forward at Port Vale, rated 14.8 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 455th of 481 on scout potential in the League One. A seasoned veteran, he has been a fringe squad member this season (23.3% of available minutes). He brings 0.28 goal contributions per 90 (0.28 goals, 0 assists). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Stockley.
Judged on this season alone, Stockley graded 9 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 52nd of 60 of the 60 centre-forwards in the League One, on 3 goals and 0 assists in 22 appearances (0.28 involvements per 90).
Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 33 → 9). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2024/25.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 15, 52nd of 60 of the 60 centre-forwards in the League One. At 32 Stockley is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 1.3 reflects that trajectory.
Past his 2024/25 peak — the recent trend is downward, so buyers are paying for what's left, not what was.
Output in context · Port Vale finished 22nd of 24 · a relegation-threatened side
3 goals in 22 appearances (0.14 per game) — light end product the role wants to see climb.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 23.3% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
- Output. 0.28 contributions per 90 is light for an attacking role — end product needs to climb.
- 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
With a Rating of 14.8, Stockley carries the 52nd-highest potential of the centre-forwards in the League One of 60, and he is posting that for a relegation-threatened side (Port Vale finished 22nd of 24) — individual numbers are harder to earn on a struggling team, so his underlying level likely sits a touch above the ranking. In the final third he profiles as a work-in-progress on end product (0.28 goal contributions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.8× and falling).
