Scout report
J. Prior is a 31-year-old goalkeeper at Livingston, rated 26.2 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 56th of 73 on scout potential in the Premiership. 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 Prior.
Judged on this season alone, Prior graded 4 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 7th of 11 of the 11 goalkeepers in the Premiership, on 4 clean sheets across 38 appearances.
Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 8 → 4). Over the 4 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2020/21.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 26, 8th of 11 of the 11 goalkeepers in the Premiership. At 31 Prior is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 2.6 reflects that trajectory.
Past his 2020/21 peak — the recent trend is downward, so buyers are paying for what's left, not what was.
Output in context · Livingston finished 12th of 12 · a relegation-threatened side
4 clean sheets in 38 appearances (11% of games). Keeping that many behind a relegation-threatened side (12th of 12) — a side that concedes more — points to a busy, productive season between the posts.
Strengths
- Availability. On the pitch for 100% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
Watch points
- Age curve. At 31, 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 26.2, Prior carries the 8th-highest potential of the goalkeepers in the Premiership of 11, and he is posting that for a relegation-threatened side (Livingston finished 12th of 12) — individual numbers are harder to earn on a struggling team, so his underlying level likely sits a touch above the ranking. A near ever-present keeper carrying the gloves this season. Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.9× and falling).
