Jean Butez is a French goalkeeper, born on 8 June 1995 (age 30), and currently Como’s No 1. His career has not been dressed up by attacking numbers, which is just as well for a goalkeeper, but by the more relevant business of keeping his place.
One of his earlier recorded league seasons came with Royal Excel Mouscron in 2017-2018, when he made eight appearances. That was a modest foothold rather than a breakthrough with trumpets, but it forms part of the route that has taken him on to regular senior football.
At Como, Butez remains a proper first-team presence. In 2025-2026, he has made 38 league appearances, all of them in Serie A, underlining his standing in the side rather more clearly than any market label could. His current value is around £3m, according to Transfermarkt.
His career, as it stands, is that of an established French goalkeeper who has worked his way to a regular Serie A role with Como. He is not a Celtic name, but he is a current first-choice keeper operating at a serious level.
