Experienced headGoalkeeper

K. Kahlina is a 34-year-old goalkeeper at Charlotte, rated 17.5 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 380th of 436 on scout potential in the Major League Soccer. A seasoned veteran, he has been an ever-present this season (97% of available minutes). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Kahlina.

Judged on this season alone, Kahlina graded 7 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 23rd of 40 of the 40 goalkeepers in the Major League Soccer, on 3 clean sheets across 21 appearances.

Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 38 → 7). Over the 5 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2025/26.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 18, 28th of 40 of the 40 goalkeepers in the Major League Soccer. At 34 Kahlina is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 1 reflects that trajectory.

3 clean sheets in 21 appearances (14% of games).

Strengths

  • Availability. On the pitch for 97% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.

Watch points

  • Age curve. At 34, 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 17.5, Kahlina carries the 28th-highest potential of the goalkeepers in the Major League Soccer of 40. A near ever-present keeper carrying the gloves this season. Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.6× and falling).
