Experienced headCentral defender

Lee Min-Gi is a 33-year-old central defender at Gwangju FC, rated 12.5 overall by Field Insider's model. A seasoned veteran, he has been a fringe squad member this season (33.1% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 1.91 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Min-Gi.

On the season, Min-Gi graded 9 for current form (age-blind), on 3 clean sheets and 1.91 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 9 → 9). Over the 5 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2023/24.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 13. At 33 Min-Gi is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 1.3 reflects that trajectory.

Clean sheets

1.91 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume, with 3 clean sheets across 15 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (12th of 13) 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.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 33.1% 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

Rated 12.5 overall — below regular-starter level. Defensively he reads as light defensive volume (1.91 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.7× and falling).
