Clean sheets

2.73 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 3 clean sheets across 24 appearances. Going forward he chipped in 0 goals and 5 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.3 goal involvements per 90, useful for a full-back.
  • Creativity. 0.3 assists per 90 — a genuine creative outlet.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 43.4% 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

With a Rating of 15.3, Dong-Jin carries the 16th-highest potential of the full-backs in the K League 1 of 23. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.73 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90), with a bit more on the ball than most in the role. Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.7× and falling).
