Clean sheets

12.86 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — high defensive volume across 3 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (4th of 6) 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.

Strengths

Defensive volume. 12.86 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

Game time. Only 0.2% 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 38.1 overall — developing / rotation level. Defensively he reads as high defensive volume (12.86 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead.

Market valueRating

Solid = now · dashed = projected

The gold line is market value — an index (not €) blending rating, age and league. It climbs through the early 20s, peaks around ages 23–27 (~26), then tapers with age. At 23, Jae-Hun sits on 25.9, at or near its peak. The blue line is Jae-Hun's projected Rating — 38.1 today — recomputed at each age, so it follows the same rise-and-fall as a career matures and declines. Solid = up to today; dashed = projected.
