5 clean sheets in 11 appearances (45% of games). Playing behind a title-challenging side (1st of 18) means a more protected goal, so the read is about command and distribution as much as raw shut-outs.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 31.4% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 44.8, Aqidi carries the 3rd-highest potential of the goalkeepers in the Pro League of 8 — though on just 11 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. A limited game time 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.
