Scout report

Squad depthAttacking midfielder

K. Miyoshi is a 29-year-old attacking midfielder at VfL Bochum, rated 37.6 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 246th of 320 on scout potential in the 2. Bundesliga. An experienced operator, he has been a rotation option this season (38.8% of available minutes). He brings 0.46 goal contributions per 90 (0.23 goals, 0.23 assists). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Miyoshi.

Judged on this season alone, Miyoshi graded 20 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 29th of 48 of the 48 attacking midfielders in the 2. Bundesliga, on 3 goals and 3 assists in 22 appearances (0.455 involvements per 90).

Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 8 → 20). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has held fairly steady, peaking in 2023/24.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 38, 40th of 48 of the 48 attacking midfielders in the 2. Bundesliga. At 29 Miyoshi is in his prime years, and a market index of 7.9 reflects that trajectory.

Read the appearance count in context: Miyoshi missed 3 games through injury (overstretching of the syndesmotic ligament) out of roughly 34 this season. The 22 he did play is a solid return on the time he was fit, and his ratings are weighted toward those games rather than the ones he sat out injured.

Goals / app

3 goals in 22 appearances (0.14 per game) — light end product the role wants to see climb. He also laid on 3 assists, so the all-round involvement reads 6 goal contributions (0.27 per appearance).

Strengths

  • Final-third output. 0.46 goal contributions per 90 (0.23 goals, 0.23 assists) — productive for the role.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 38.8% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 37.6, Miyoshi carries the 40th-highest potential of the attacking midfielders in the 2. Bundesliga of 48. In the final third he profiles as a productive contributor (0.46 goal contributions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.1× now → 0.8× projected in three years).
