Squad depthCentral midfielder

Kim Gyeong-Min is a 29-year-old central midfielder at Suwon City FC, rated 26.1 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 78th of 144 on scout potential in the K League 1. An experienced operator, he has been a fringe squad member this season (20.3% of available minutes). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Gyeong-Min.

Judged on this season alone, Gyeong-Min graded 5 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 26th of 27 of the 27 central midfielders in the K League 1, on 0 goals, 1 assist and 0.862 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 6 → 5). Over the 4 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2022/23.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 26, 19th of 27 of the 27 central midfielders in the K League 1. At 29 Gyeong-Min is in his prime years, and a market index of 3.5 reflects that trajectory.

  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 26.1, Gyeong-Min carries the 19th-highest potential of the central midfielders in the K League 1 of 27 — though on just 19 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as light defensive volume (0.86 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.1× now → 0.8× projected in three years).
