Samuel Soares is a 24-year-old goalkeeper at Benfica, rated 52.7 overall by Field Insider's model. An emerging talent, he has been a fringe squad member this season (8.3% of available minutes). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Soares.

On the season, Soares graded 7 for current form (age-blind), on 1 clean sheet across 2 appearances.

Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 5 → 7). Over the 5 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2021/22.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 53. At 24 Soares is in his prime years, and a market index of 20.1 reflects that trajectory.

1 clean sheet in 2 appearances (50% of games). Playing behind an upper-table side (3rd of 18) means a more protected goal, so the read is about command and distribution as much as raw shut-outs.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 8.3% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.

Outlook

Rated 52.7 overall — a solid contributor and squad regular. A limited game time keeper carrying the gloves this season. Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead.
