Scout report

Experienced headGoalkeeper

V. Gudiev is a 31-year-old goalkeeper at Akron, rated 16.5 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 140th of 157 on scout potential in the Premier League. A seasoned veteran, he has been a regular starter this season (73.8% of available minutes). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Gudiev.

Judged on this season alone, Gudiev graded 7 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 11th of 17 of the 17 goalkeepers in the Premier League, on 2 clean sheets across 11 appearances.

Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 6 → 7). Over the 7 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2024/25.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 17, 14th of 17 of the 17 goalkeepers in the Premier League. At 31 Gudiev is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 0.8 reflects that trajectory.

2 clean sheets in 11 appearances (18% of games). Keeping that many behind a relegation-threatened side (14th of 16) — a side that concedes more — points to a busy, productive season between the posts.

Strengths

  • Availability. On the pitch for 73.8% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.

Watch points

  • Age curve. At 31, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 16.5, Gudiev carries the 14th-highest potential of the goalkeepers in the Premier League of 17 — though on just 11 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. A a regular starter keeper carrying the gloves this season. Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.9× and falling).
