Leo Román is a 26-year-old goalkeeper at Mallorca, rated 72.7 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 35th of 140 on scout potential in the La Liga. In his prime years, he has been an ever-present this season (86.8% of available minutes). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Román.

Judged on this season alone, Román graded 9 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 17th of 22 of the 22 goalkeepers in the La Liga, on 5 clean sheets across 33 appearances.

Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 9 → 9). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has trended upward, peaking in 2023/24.

5 clean sheets in 33 appearances (15% of games). Keeping that many behind a relegation-threatened side (18th of 20) — a side that concedes more — points to a busy, productive season between the posts.

Strengths

  • Availability. On the pitch for 86.8% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.

Watch points

  • Few red flags. No obvious weaknesses in the current-season profile — consistency is the next test.

Outlook

With a Rating of 72.7, Román carries the 3rd-highest potential of the goalkeepers in the La Liga (top 14%), and he is posting that for a relegation-threatened side (Mallorca finished 18th of 20) — 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. In the prime window — at or near peak market value, so the next two seasons are the ones to cash in or build around. Doing it for a lesser side, he profiles as a value buy for a club higher up the table.
