4 clean sheets in 10 appearances (40% of games). Keeping that many behind a relegation-threatened side (18th of 18) — a side that concedes more — points to a busy, productive season between the posts.

Outlook

With a Rating of 10.1, Ribeiro carries the 15th-highest potential of the goalkeepers in the Segunda Liga of 15 — though on just 10 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. A limited game time keeper carrying the gloves this season. Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.6× 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 36, Ribeiro sits on 1.2, past its peak and easing. The blue line is Ribeiro's projected Rating — 10.1 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.
