Kim In-Sung is a 36-year-old winger at Pohang Steelers, rated 8.6 overall by Field Insider's model. A seasoned veteran, he has been a fringe squad member this season (16.4% of available minutes). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on In-Sung.

On the season, In-Sung graded 4 for current form (age-blind), on 1 goal and 0 assists in 33 appearances (0.161 involvements per 90).

Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 9 → 4). Over the 5 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2020/21.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 9. At 36 In-Sung is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 0.6 reflects that trajectory.

Goals / app

1 goal in 33 appearances (0.03 per game) — light end product the role wants to see climb.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 16.4% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Output. 0.16 contributions per 90 is light for an attacking role — end product needs to climb.
  • Age curve. At 36, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

Rated 8.6 overall — below regular-starter level. In the final third he profiles as a work-in-progress on end product (0.16 goal contributions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.6× and falling).
