Scout report

Squad depthGoalkeeper

J. Golz is a 27-year-old goalkeeper at Rot-Weiß Essen, rated 32.4 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 199th of 323 on scout potential in the 3. Liga. In his prime years, he has been a rotation option this season (39.5% of available minutes). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Golz.

Judged on this season alone, Golz graded 2 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 19th of 29 of the 29 goalkeepers in the 3. Liga, on 2 clean sheets across 29 appearances.

Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 4 → 2). Over the 4 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2023/24.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 32, 16th of 29 of the 29 goalkeepers in the 3. Liga. At 27 Golz is in his prime years, and a market index of 6.1 reflects that trajectory.

2 clean sheets in 29 appearances (7% of games). Playing behind an upper-table side (3rd of 20) means a more protected goal, so the read is about command and distribution as much as raw shut-outs.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 39.5% 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 32.4, Golz carries the 16th-highest potential of the goalkeepers in the 3. Liga of 29. 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.
