Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Tae-Hee.

Clean sheets

1.53 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume, with 1 clean sheet across 16 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (11th of 12) 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 23.7% 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

Rated 9.7 overall — below regular-starter level. Defensively he reads as light defensive volume (1.53 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.6× and falling).
