Squad depthGoalkeeper

Andorinha is a 30-year-old goalkeeper at FC Porto B, rated 20.6 overall by Field Insider's model. An experienced operator, he has been a fringe squad member this season (8.8% of available minutes). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Andorinha.

On the season, Andorinha graded 3 for current form (age-blind), on 1 clean sheet across 10 appearances.

Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 19 → 3). Over the 3 seasons on record his form has held fairly steady, peaking in 2024/25.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 21. At 30 Andorinha is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 2.5 reflects that trajectory.

1 clean sheet in 10 appearances (10% of games). Playing behind an upper-table side (5th of 18) means a more protected goal, so the read is about command and distribution as much as raw shut-outs.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 8.8% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

Rated 20.6 overall — below regular-starter level. A limited game time keeper carrying the gloves this season. Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1× now → 0.7× projected in three years).
