Scout report

Experienced headGoalkeeper

José Sá is a 33-year-old goalkeeper at Wolves, rated 19.7 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 245th of 272 on scout potential in the Championship. A seasoned veteran, he has been a rotation option this season (39.1% of available minutes). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Sá.

Judged on this season alone, Sá graded 7 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 24th of 41 of the 41 goalkeepers in the Championship, on 2 clean sheets across 9 appearances.

Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 2 → 7). Over the 7 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2020/21.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 20, 30th of 41 of the 41 goalkeepers in the Championship. At 33 Sá is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 3.2 reflects that trajectory.

2 clean sheets in 9 appearances (22% of games). Playing behind an upper-table side (8th of 24) means a more protected goal, so the read is about command and distribution as much as raw shut-outs.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 39.1% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • 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 19.7, Sá carries the 30th-highest potential of the goalkeepers in the Championship of 41 — though on just 9 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 (0.7× and falling).
