Scout report

Experienced headGoalkeeper

M. Festa is a 34-year-old goalkeeper at Mantova, rated 16.9 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 132nd of 145 on scout potential in the Serie B. A seasoned veteran, he has been a rotation option this season (47.7% of available minutes). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Festa.

Judged on this season alone, Festa graded 9 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 9th of 14 of the 14 goalkeepers in the Serie B, on 4 clean sheets across 18 appearances.

Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 15 → 9). Over the 4 seasons on record his form has trended upward, peaking in 2024/25.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 17, 13th of 14 of the 14 goalkeepers in the Serie B. At 34 Festa is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 2 reflects that trajectory.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 47.7% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Age curve. At 34, 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 16.9, Festa carries the 13th-highest potential of the goalkeepers in the Serie B of 14. A rotation minutes keeper carrying the gloves this season. Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.6× and falling).
