Scout report

Project playerGoalkeeper

P. Schulte is a 25-year-old goalkeeper at Columbus Crew, rated 43.8 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 47th of 513 on scout potential in the Major League Soccer. In his prime years, he has been an ever-present this season (91.3% of available minutes). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Schulte.

Judged on this season alone, Schulte graded 9 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 21st of 42 of the 42 goalkeepers in the Major League Soccer, on 5 clean sheets across 27 appearances.

Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 30 → 9). Over the 3 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2024/25.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 44, top 10% of the 42 goalkeepers in the Major League Soccer. At 25 Schulte is in his prime years, and a market index of 8.2 reflects that trajectory.

Read the appearance count in context: Schulte missed 6 games through injury (injury, international duty, abdominal muscles) out of roughly 37 this season. The 27 he did play is a solid return on the time he was fit, and his ratings are weighted toward those games rather than the ones he sat out injured.
