Scout report

One of the biggest game-time risers in the Segunda División: on the pitch for 100% of Las Palmas's available minutes this season, up from 4% last year — a bench-to-starter jump the ratings will catch up with at the next checkpoint.

Experienced headGoalkeeper

José Caro is a 32-year-old goalkeeper at Las Palmas, rated 24.6 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 185th of 194 on scout potential in the Segunda División. A seasoned veteran, he has been a rotation option this season (47.6% of available minutes). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Caro.

Judged on this season alone, Caro graded 16 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 13th of 23 of the 23 goalkeepers in the Segunda División, on 3 clean sheets across 10 appearances.

Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 0 → 16). Over the 7 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2022/23.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 25, 23rd of 23 of the 23 goalkeepers in the Segunda División. At 32 Caro is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 4.4 reflects that trajectory.

3 clean sheets in 10 appearances (30% of games). Keeping that many behind a lower-table side (16th of 22) — a side that concedes more — points to a busy, productive season between the posts.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 47.6% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • 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 24.6, Caro carries the 23rd-highest potential of the goalkeepers in the Segunda División of 23 — though on just 10 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. A rotation minutes keeper carrying the gloves this season. Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.8× and falling).
