Scout report
L. Richards is a 24-year-old full-back at Crawley Town, rated 27.6 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 225th of 478 on scout potential in the League Two. An emerging talent, he has been a fringe squad member this season (17% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 2.69 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Richards.
Judged on this season alone, Richards graded 5 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 82nd of 83 of the 83 full-backs in the League Two, on 2 clean sheets and 2.692 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 15 → 5). Over the 5 seasons on record his form has held fairly steady, peaking in 2023/24.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 28, 43rd of 83 of the 83 full-backs in the League Two. At 24 Richards is in his prime years, and a market index of 3 reflects that trajectory.
Past his 2023/24 peak — the recent trend is downward, so buyers are paying for what's left, not what was.

- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
With a Rating of 27.6, Richards carries the 43rd-highest potential of the full-backs in the League Two of 83 — though on just 13 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.69 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead.
