Experienced headBall-winning Attacking midfielder

Ko Seung-Beom is a 32-year-old attacking midfielder at Ulsan Hyundai FC, rated 18.6 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 105th of 148 on scout potential in the K League 1. A seasoned veteran, he has been a rotation option this season (36.1% of available minutes). He brings 0.29 goal contributions per 90 (0.15 goals, 0.15 assists). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Seung-Beom.

Judged on this season alone, Seung-Beom graded 13 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 3rd of 7 of the 7 attacking midfielders in the K League 1, on 2 goals and 2 assists in 29 appearances (0.292 involvements per 90).

Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 23 → 13). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2024/25.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 19, 6th of 7 of the 7 attacking midfielders in the K League 1. At 32 Seung-Beom is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 2.1 reflects that trajectory.

Goals / app

2 goals in 29 appearances (0.07 per game) — light end product the role wants to see climb. Add 2 assists for 4 goal contributions in all.

Strengths

  • Defensive volume. 4.16 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 36.1% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Output. 0.29 contributions per 90 is light for an attacking role — end product needs to climb.
  • Age curve. At 32, 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 18.6, Seung-Beom carries the 6th-highest potential of the attacking midfielders in the K League 1 of 7. In the final third he profiles as a work-in-progress on end product (0.29 goal contributions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.8× and falling).
