With a Rating of 10.6, Delecroix carries the 21st-highest potential of the goalkeepers in the Ligue 2 of 21 — though on just 8 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. A rotation minutes keeper carrying the gloves this season. Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.5× and falling).

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 (~4), then tapers with age. At 38, Delecroix sits on 1, past its peak and easing. The blue line is Delecroix's projected Rating — 10.6 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.
