Minutes

12 clean sheets in 33 appearances (36% of games). Playing behind a title-challenging side (2nd of 18) means a more protected goal, so the read is about command and distribution as much as raw shut-outs.

Strengths

Availability. On the pitch for 97.1% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
Pedigree. Performing in a top-tier setting (team strength 89.5/100).
Ceiling. High potential at just 21 — room to grow into a bigger role.

Watch points

Few red flags. No obvious weaknesses in the current-season profile — consistency is the next test.

Outlook

With a Rating of 88.9, Risser carries the 1st-highest potential of the goalkeepers in the Ligue 1 (top 6%). A near ever-present keeper carrying the gloves this season. At 21 the trajectory points up — potential sits near its ceiling (97/100) and market value should climb as minutes and output follow. With this floor already at 21, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.

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 (~52), then tapers with age. At 21, Risser sits on 46.7, still climbing toward its peak. The blue line is Risser's projected Rating — 88.9 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.
