I have a bit of free time today, so here’s a brief list of goalkeepers that I’ve been watching recently. Only going to feature senior players so the list isn’t too long. 🧵👇

Ivan Pakholyuk (22, Kolos Kovalivka) — Very solid shot-stopper. He lacks height for a goalkeeper but makes up for it with a solid sense of goal line positioning and diving explosivity. He was a big part of why Kolos was able to achieve its best league finish in years.

🧵End of thread. I’m not sure if I’ll have the time to continue with threads like this for other positions, but we’ll see I suppose. Thanks for reading, I do appreciate it.

6 saves and a clean sheet in a continental final less than a year later 🤷‍♂️

7.) Rui Araki (Gamba Osaka U18) U20 international goalkeeper at 17 years old. A 192 cm frame allows him to have exceptional reach, and quick reactions allow him to utilize that reach. Handling is assured and his distribution is sufficient, but could be improved. Top talent.

Started for Antlers U18s for the first time a few days ago and scored a wonderful goal from outside the box. I try to avoid overhyping prospects as much as possible but he looks absolutely unreal. Very excited by his potential.

Keep an eye on Isobe Ren of Kashima Antlers. 2011 born CAM with an agility-type build as of now, with quick directional changes acceleration burst and smooth ball manipulation. Obviously very early days in his physical development, but technical level is very solid.
