Scout report

Solid contributorGoalkeeper

N. Schmid is a 29-year-old goalkeeper at Portsmouth, rated 47.7 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 325th of 493 on scout potential in the Championship. An experienced operator, he has been an ever-present this season (92.5% of available minutes). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Schmid.

Judged on this season alone, Schmid graded 15 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 18th of 44 of the 44 goalkeepers in the Championship, on 7 clean sheets across 34 appearances.

Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 12 → 15).

On long-term talent our Rating reads 48, 23rd of 44 of the 44 goalkeepers in the Championship. At 29 Schmid is in his prime years, and a market index of 12.1 reflects that trajectory.

Read the appearance count in context: Schmid missed 10 games through injury (wrist) out of roughly 46 this season. The 34 he did play is a solid return on the time he was fit, and his ratings are weighted toward those games rather than the ones he sat out injured.

7 clean sheets in 34 appearances (21% of games). Keeping that many behind a lower-table side (18th of 24) — a side that concedes more — points to a busy, productive season between the posts.

Strengths

  • Availability. On the pitch for 92.5% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.

Watch points

  • Few red flags. No obvious weaknesses in the current-season profile — consistency is the next test.

Outlook

With a Rating of 47.7, Schmid carries the 23rd-highest potential of the goalkeepers in the Championship of 44, and he is posting that for a lower-table side (Portsmouth finished 18th of 24) — 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. Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.1× now → 0.8× projected in three years).
