Scout report

Squad depthGoalkeeper

N. Lemaître is a 29-year-old goalkeeper at Estac Troyes, rated 34.4 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 250th of 313 on scout potential in the Ligue 2. An experienced operator, he has been a fringe squad member this season (27.7% of available minutes). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Lemaître.

Judged on this season alone, Lemaître graded 10 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 17th of 24 of the 24 goalkeepers in the Ligue 2, on 3 clean sheets across 10 appearances.

Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 48 → 10). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2024/25.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 34, 15th of 24 of the 24 goalkeepers in the Ligue 2. At 29 Lemaître is in his prime years, and a market index of 7.1 reflects that trajectory.

3 clean sheets in 10 appearances (30% of games). Playing behind a title-challenging side (1st of 18) means a more protected goal, so the read is about command and distribution as much as raw shut-outs.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 27.7% 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 34.4, Lemaître carries the 15th-highest potential of the goalkeepers in the Ligue 2 of 24 — though on just 10 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. A limited game time keeper carrying the gloves this season. Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.1× now → 0.8× projected in three years).
