Scout report
Lee Hyun-Sik is a 30-year-old central midfielder at Daejeon Citizen, rated 21.4 overall by Field Insider's model. An experienced operator, he has been a fringe squad member this season (19.2% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 3.06 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Hyun-Sik.
On the season, Hyun-Sik graded 8 for current form (age-blind), on 0 goals, 1 assist and 3.06 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 0 → 8). Over the 7 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2021/22.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 21. At 30 Hyun-Sik is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 2.6 reflects that trajectory.
Past his 2020/21 peak — the recent trend is downward, so buyers are paying for what's left, not what was.
Output in context · Daejeon Citizen finished 9th of 12 · a lower-table side
3.06 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 2 clean sheets across 16 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (9th of 12) is harder than the bare numbers suggest: a back line under more pressure has to defend more often and protects fewer leads, so the volume — and any clean sheets — carry real weight. Going forward he chipped in 0 goals and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.18 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central midfielder.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 19.2% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
Rated 21.4 overall — below regular-starter level. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (3.06 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90), with a bit more on the ball than most in the role. Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1× now → 0.7× projected in three years).
