Project playerGoalkeeper

J. Pulskamp is a 25-year-old goalkeeper at Sporting Kansas City, rated 42.5 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 76th of 513 on scout potential in the Major League Soccer. In his prime years, he has been an ever-present this season (100% of available minutes). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Pulskamp.

Judged on this season alone, Pulskamp graded 4 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 30th of 42 of the 42 goalkeepers in the Major League Soccer, on 4 clean sheets across 34 appearances.

Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 2 → 4). Over the 5 seasons on record his form has held fairly steady, peaking in 2022/23.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 43, top 12% of the 42 goalkeepers in the Major League Soccer. At 25 Pulskamp is in his prime years, and a market index of 8 reflects that trajectory.

4 clean sheets in 34 appearances (12% of games). Keeping that many behind a relegation-threatened side (15th of 15) — a side that concedes more — points to a busy, productive season between the posts.

Strengths

  • Availability. On the pitch for 100% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.

Watch points

  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 42.5, Pulskamp carries the 5th-highest potential of the goalkeepers in the Major League Soccer (top 12%), and he is posting that for a relegation-threatened side (Sporting Kansas City finished 15th of 15) — individual numbers are harder to earn on a struggling team, so his underlying level likely sits a touch above the ranking. A near ever-present keeper carrying the gloves this season. Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead.
