In his prime years, he has been a rotation option this season (54.3% of available minutes). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Johansson.

Judged on this season alone, Johansson graded 16 — a solid campaign that ranks top 35% of the 43 goalkeepers in the Championship, on 7 clean sheets across 25 appearances.

Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 31 → 16). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has trended upward, peaking in 2021/22.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 51, top 40% of the 43 goalkeepers in the Championship. At 27 Johansson is in his prime years, and a market index of 23.5 reflects that trajectory.

Read the appearance count in context: Johansson missed 19 games through injury (shoulder) out of roughly 46 this season. The 25 he did play is a solid return on the time he was fit, and his ratings are weighted toward those games rather than the ones he sat out injured.

7 clean sheets in 25 appearances (28% of games). Keeping that many behind a lower-table side (17th of 24) — a side that concedes more — points to a busy, productive season between the posts.

Outlook

With a Rating of 51, Johansson carries the 17th-highest potential of the goalkeepers in the Championship (top 40%), and he is posting that for a lower-table side (Stoke City finished 17th of 24) — individual numbers are harder to earn on a struggling team, so his underlying level likely sits a touch above the ranking. A rotation minutes keeper carrying the gloves this season. In the prime window — at or near peak market value, so the next two seasons are the ones to cash in or build around. Doing it for a lesser side, he profiles as a value buy for a club higher up the table.

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 (~24), then tapers with age. At 27, Johansson sits on 23.5, at or near its peak. The blue line is Johansson's projected Rating — 51 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.
