Experienced headGoalkeeper

S. Mignolet is a 38-year-old goalkeeper at Club Brugge KV, rated 7.2 overall by Field Insider's model. A seasoned veteran, he has been a fringe squad member this season (28.4% of available minutes). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Mignolet.

On the season, Mignolet graded 7 for current form (age-blind), on 3 clean sheets across 12 appearances.

Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 27 → 7). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2021/22.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 7. At 38 Mignolet is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 0.9 reflects that trajectory.

3 clean sheets in 12 appearances (25% of games). Playing behind an upper-table side (4th 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 28.4% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Age curve. At 38, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

Rated 7.2 overall — below regular-starter level. A limited game time keeper carrying the gloves this season. Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.5× and falling).
