Experienced headGoalkeeper

Choi Chul-Won is a 32-year-old goalkeeper at FC Seoul, rated 13.9 overall by Field Insider's model. A seasoned veteran, he has been a fringe squad member this season (17.3% of available minutes). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Chul-Won.

On the season, Chul-Won graded 5 for current form (age-blind), on 2 clean sheets across 9 appearances.

Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 10 → 5). Over the 3 seasons on record his form has trended upward, peaking in 2024/25.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 14. At 32 Chul-Won is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 1.4 reflects that trajectory.

Below his 2024/25 peak but holding a solid level — the platform for a return is there.

2 clean sheets in 9 appearances (22% of games). Keeping that many behind a relegation-threatened side (6th of 6) — a side that concedes more — points to a busy, productive season between the posts.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 17.3% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Age curve. At 32, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

Rated 13.9 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 (0.8× and falling).
