In his prime years, he has been a fringe squad member this season (19.4% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 1.36 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Hernandes.
Judged on this season alone, Hernandes graded 15 — a solid campaign that ranks top 38% of the 48 central midfielders in the K League 1, on 4 goals, 1 assist and 1.36 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 7 → 15). Over the 4 seasons on record his form has held fairly steady, peaking in 2023/24.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 41, top 15% of the 48 central midfielders in the K League 1. At 26 Hernandes is in his prime years, and a market index of 10.1 reflects that trajectory.
Past his 2023/24 peak — the recent trend is downward, so buyers are paying for what's left, not what was.
Output in context · Daejeon Citizen finished 2nd of 6 · a title-challenging side
1.36 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume, with 2 clean sheets across 18 appearances. Behind a title-challenging side (2nd of 6) the side controls more games, so the defensive load is lighter — the value sits as much in composure and ball progression as in raw volume. Going forward he chipped in 4 goals and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.68 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central midfielder.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 19.4% 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 41.4, Hernandes carries the 7th-highest potential of the central midfielders in the K League 1 of 48 — though on just 18 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as light defensive volume (1.36 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). In the prime window — at or near peak market value, so the next two seasons are the ones to cash in or build around.
