Strengths

Ceiling. High potential at just 22 — room to grow into a bigger role.

Watch points

Game time. Only 0% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.

Outlook

Rated 54 overall — a solid contributor and squad regular. A limited game time keeper carrying the gloves this season. Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 1.9×) with the best seasons likely ahead. With this floor already at 22, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.

Value & potential by age

Market valueRating

Solid = now · dashed = projected

The gold line is market value — an index (not €) blending rating, age and league. It climbs through the early 20s, peaks around ages 23–27 (~25), then tapers with age. At 22, Closset sits on 23.6, still climbing toward its peak. The blue line is Closset's projected Rating — 54 today — recomputed at each age, so it follows the same rise-and-fall as a career matures and declines. Solid = up to today; dashed = projected.
