Scout report

Experienced headGoalkeeper

M. Ryan is a 34-year-old goalkeeper at Levante, rated 31.6 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 126th of 140 on scout potential in the La Liga. A seasoned veteran, he has been an ever-present this season (94.7% of available minutes). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Ryan.

Judged on this season alone, Ryan graded 23 — a solid campaign that ranks top 37% of the 22 goalkeepers in the La Liga, on 9 clean sheets across 36 appearances.

Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 23 → 23). Over the 7 seasons on record his form has trended upward, peaking in 2023/24.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 32, 20th of 22 of the 22 goalkeepers in the La Liga. At 34 Ryan is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 7.5 reflects that trajectory.

9 clean sheets in 36 appearances (25% of games). Keeping that many behind a lower-table side (16th of 20) — a side that concedes more — points to a busy, productive season between the posts.

Strengths

  • Availability. On the pitch for 94.7% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
  • Pedigree. Performing in a top-tier setting (team strength 88.4/100).

Watch points

  • 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 31.6, Ryan carries the 20th-highest potential of the goalkeepers in the La Liga of 22, and he is posting that for a lower-table side (Levante finished 16th 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. Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.6× and falling).
