Scout report

Squad depthGoalkeeper

J. Griffiths is a 24-year-old goalkeeper at West Brom, rated 60.5 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 40th of 169 on scout potential in the Championship. An emerging talent, he has been a rotation option this season (50.6% of available minutes). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Griffiths.

Judged on this season alone, Griffiths graded 17 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 15th of 31 of the 31 goalkeepers in the Championship, on 7 clean sheets across 24 appearances.

Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 7 → 17). Over the 5 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2020/21.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 61, top 17% of the 31 goalkeepers in the Championship. At 24 Griffiths is in his prime years, and a market index of 27.9 reflects that trajectory.

7 clean sheets in 24 appearances (29% of games). Keeping that many behind a lower-table side (21st of 24) — a side that concedes more — points to a busy, productive season between the posts.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 50.6% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.

Outlook

With a Rating of 60.5, Griffiths carries the 5th-highest potential of the goalkeepers in the Championship (top 17%), and he is posting that for a lower-table side (West Brom finished 21st of 24) — individual numbers are harder to earn on a struggling team, so his underlying level likely sits a touch above the ranking. A rotation minutes keeper carrying the gloves this season. Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead. Doing it for a lesser side, he profiles as a value buy for a club higher up the table.
