Scout report

Squad depthGoalkeeper

J. Bycroft is a 24-year-old goalkeeper at Exeter City, rated 37.8 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 257th of 481 on scout potential in the League One. An emerging talent, he has been a fringe squad member this season (15.4% of available minutes). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Bycroft.

Judged on this season alone, Bycroft graded 4 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 33rd of 35 of the 35 goalkeepers in the League One, on 2 clean sheets across 7 appearances.

Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 8 → 4). Over the 3 seasons on record his form has held fairly steady, peaking in 2024/25.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 38, 18th of 35 of the 35 goalkeepers in the League One. At 24 Bycroft is in his prime years, and a market index of 8.4 reflects that trajectory.

2 clean sheets in 7 appearances (29% of games). Keeping that many behind a lower-table side (21st of 24) — a side that concedes more — points to a busy, productive season between the posts.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 15.4% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 37.8, Bycroft carries the 18th-highest potential of the goalkeepers in the League One of 35 — though on just 7 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. 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.
