Scout report

Project playerGoalkeeper

J. McCracken is a 26-year-old goalkeeper at Dundee, rated 43.8 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 70th of 225 on scout potential in the Premiership. In his prime years, he has been an ever-present this season (91.4% of available minutes). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on McCracken.

Judged on this season alone, McCracken graded 9 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 10th of 15 of the 15 goalkeepers in the Premiership, on 6 clean sheets across 35 appearances.

Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 2 → 9). Across the 4 seasons we hold, it's his best return yet.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 44, top 14% of the 15 goalkeepers in the Premiership. At 26 McCracken is in his prime years, and a market index of 9.8 reflects that trajectory.

6 clean sheets in 35 appearances (17% of games). Keeping that many behind a lower-table side (9th of 12) — a side that concedes more — points to a busy, productive season between the posts.

Strengths

  • Availability. On the pitch for 91.4% 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 43.8, McCracken carries the 2nd-highest potential of the goalkeepers in the Premiership (top 14%), and he is posting that for a lower-table side (Dundee finished 9th of 12) — 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. In the prime window — at or near peak market value, so the next two seasons are the ones to cash in or build around.
