Park Soo-Il is a 30-year-old full-back at FC Seoul, rated 23.4 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 89th of 148 on scout potential in the K League 1. An experienced operator, he has been a rotation option this season (38.4% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 2.6 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Soo-Il.

Judged on this season alone, Soo-Il graded 14 — a solid campaign that ranks top 40% of the 23 full-backs in the K League 1, on 4 clean sheets and 2.603 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 27 → 14). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has trended upward, peaking in 2024/25.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 23, 11th of 23 of the 23 full-backs in the K League 1. At 30 Soo-Il is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 2.9 reflects that trajectory.

Clean sheets

2.6 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 4 clean sheets across 32 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (6th of 6) 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. Going forward he chipped in 2 goals and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.21 goal involvements per 90, useful for a full-back.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 38.4% 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 23.4, Soo-Il carries the 11th-highest potential of the full-backs in the K League 1 of 23, and he is posting that for a relegation-threatened side (FC Seoul finished 6th of 6) — individual numbers are harder to earn on a struggling team, so his underlying level likely sits a touch above the ranking. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.6 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1× now → 0.7× projected in three years).
