S. McDermott is a 33-year-old goalkeeper at Molde, rated 9.2 overall by Field Insider's model. A seasoned veteran, he has been a fringe squad member this season (11.8% of available minutes). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on McDermott.

On the season, McDermott graded 9 for current form (age-blind), on 1 clean sheet across 2 appearances.

Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 5 → 9). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has trended upward, peaking in 2021/22.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 9. At 33 McDermott is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 0.9 reflects that trajectory.

1 clean sheet in 2 appearances (50% of games). Playing behind an upper-table side (3rd of 16) means a more protected goal, so the read is about command and distribution as much as raw shut-outs.

Strengths

  • Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.5 goal involvements per 90, useful for a goalkeeper.
  • Creativity. 0.5 assists per 90 — a genuine creative outlet.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 11.8% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Age curve. At 33, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

Rated 9.2 overall — below regular-starter level. A limited game time keeper carrying the gloves this season. Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.7× and falling).
