Scout report

Experienced headGoalkeeper

Kim Seung-Gyu is a 35-year-old goalkeeper at FC Tokyo, rated 12.3 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 110th of 113 on scout potential in the J1 League. A seasoned veteran, he has been a rotation option this season (36.8% of available minutes). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Seung-Gyu.

Judged on this season alone, Seung-Gyu graded 10 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 16th of 25 of the 25 goalkeepers in the J1 League, on 4 clean sheets across 14 appearances.

Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 10 → 10). Over the 7 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2022/23.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 12, 24th of 25 of the 25 goalkeepers in the J1 League. At 35 Seung-Gyu is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 1.4 reflects that trajectory.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 36.8% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Age curve. At 35, 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 12.3, Seung-Gyu carries the 24th-highest potential of the goalkeepers in the J1 League of 25 — though on just 14 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. A rotation minutes keeper carrying the gloves this season. Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.6× and falling).
