Experienced headDefensive midfielder

Kim Jung-Hyun is a 33-year-old defensive midfielder at FC Anyang, rated 12.2 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 112th of 123 on scout potential in the K League 1. A seasoned veteran, he has been a fringe squad member this season (25.2% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 3.69 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Jung-Hyun.

Judged on this season alone, Jung-Hyun graded 12 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 3rd of 5 of the 5 defensive midfielders in the K League 1, on 1 goal, 0 assists and 3.693 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 8 → 12). Across the 3 seasons we hold, it's his best return yet.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 12, 5th of 5 of the 5 defensive midfielders in the K League 1. At 33 Jung-Hyun is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 1.7 reflects that trajectory.

Clean sheets

3.69 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 1 clean sheet across 25 appearances. Going forward he chipped in 1 goal and 0 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Defensive volume. 3.69 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 25.2% 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 12.2, Jung-Hyun carries the 5th-highest potential of the defensive midfielders in the K League 1 of 5 — though on just 25 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (3.69 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.7× and falling).
