Rafa is a 22-year-old goalkeeper at Pacos Ferreira, rated 42.2 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 46th of 106 in the Segunda Liga and 1765th of 2861 U-23 players tracked. An emerging talent, he has been a fringe squad member this season (26.5% of available minutes). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Rafa.
Judged on this season alone, Rafa graded 10 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 8th of 13 of the 13 goalkeepers in the Segunda Liga, on 3 clean sheets across 19 appearances.
Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 5 → 10).
On long-term talent our Rating reads 42, 7th of 13 of the 13 goalkeepers in the Segunda Liga. At 22 Rafa is still climbing toward his ceiling, and a market index of 27.3 reflects that trajectory.
3 clean sheets in 19 appearances (16% of games). Keeping that many behind a relegation-threatened side (17th of 18) — a side that concedes more — points to a busy, productive season between the posts.
With a Rating of 42.2, Rafa carries the 7th-highest potential of the goalkeepers in the Segunda Liga of 13 — though on just 19 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. 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.

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 (~29), then tapers with age. At 22, Rafa sits on 27.3, still climbing toward its peak. The blue line is Rafa's projected Rating — 42.2 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.
