Scout report
Son Heung-Min is a 34-year-old centre-forward at Los Angeles FC, enjoying a standout season — 12 goals and 3 assists in 13 appearances, a Season grade of 34, top 42% of Major League Soccer centre-forwards. On long-term scout potential he's rated 11.4, ranking 493rd of 513 in the Major League Soccer. A seasoned veteran, he has been a rotation option (35% of available minutes). He brings 1.22 goal contributions per 90 (0.98 goals, 0.25 assists). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Heung-Min.
Judged on this season alone, Heung-Min graded 34 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 27th of 64 of the 64 centre-forwards in the Major League Soccer, on 12 goals and 3 assists in 13 appearances (1.224 involvements per 90).
Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 48 → 34). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2021/22.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 11, 60th of 64 of the 64 centre-forwards in the Major League Soccer. At 34 Heung-Min is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 1.1 reflects that trajectory.
Past his 2021/22 peak — the recent trend is downward, so buyers are paying for what's left, not what was.
Output in context · Los Angeles FC finished 3rd of 15 · an upper-table side
12 goals in 13 appearances (0.92 per game) — double figures playing for an upper-table side (3rd of 15). He also laid on 3 assists, so the all-round involvement reads 15 goal contributions (1.15 per appearance).
Strengths
- Final-third output. 1.22 goal contributions per 90 (0.98 goals, 0.25 assists) — productive for the role.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 35% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
- Age curve. At 34, 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 11.4, Heung-Min carries the 60th-highest potential of the centre-forwards in the Major League Soccer of 64 — though on just 13 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. In the final third he profiles as a genuine goal threat (1.22 goal contributions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.6× and falling).
