Project playerAttacking midfielder

K. Konno is a 29-year-old attacking midfielder at Avispa Fukuoka, rated 34.4 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 183rd of 377 on scout potential in the J1 League. An experienced operator, he has been a regular starter this season (66.9% of available minutes). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Konno.

Judged on this season alone, Konno graded 14 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 35th of 51 of the 51 attacking midfielders in the J1 League, on 3 goals and 0 assists in 36 appearances (0.118 involvements per 90).

Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 35 → 14). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has trended upward, peaking in 2024/25.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 34, 28th of 51 of the 51 attacking midfielders in the J1 League. At 29 Konno is in his prime years, and a market index of 5.2 reflects that trajectory.

3 goals in 36 appearances (0.08 per game) — light end product the role wants to see climb.

Strengths

  • Availability. On the pitch for 66.9% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.

Watch points

  • Output. 0.12 contributions per 90 is light for an attacking role — end product needs to climb.
  • Defensive numbers. Modest 1.5 defensive actions per 90 for the position.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 34.4, Konno carries the 28th-highest potential of the attacking midfielders in the J1 League of 51. In the final third he profiles as a work-in-progress on end product (0.12 goal contributions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.1× now → 0.8× projected in three years).
