Scout report
M. Howard is a 39-year-old goalkeeper at Salford City, enjoying a standout season — 0 goals and 0 assists in 2 appearances, a Season grade of 3. On long-term scout potential he's rated 1.9. A seasoned veteran, he has been a fringe squad member (4.1% of available minutes). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Howard.
On the season, Howard graded 3 for current form (age-blind), on 1 clean sheet across 2 appearances.
Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 17 → 3). Over the 5 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2021/22.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 2. At 39 Howard is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 0.1 reflects that trajectory.
Howard is operating at his career peak — the 2021/22 level is the level.
Output in context · Salford City finished 4th of 24 · an upper-table side
1 clean sheet in 2 appearances (50% of games). Playing behind an upper-table side (4th 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 4.1% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
- Age curve. At 39, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
Rated 1.9 overall — below regular-starter level. A limited game time keeper carrying the gloves this season. Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.5× and falling).
