Yazan Al Arab is a 30-year-old central defender at FC Seoul, rated 23.5 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 88th of 148 on scout potential in the K League 1. An experienced operator, he has been a rotation option this season (44.7% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 2.83 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Arab.

Judged on this season alone, Arab graded 18 — a strong campaign that ranks top 20% of the 31 centre-backs in the K League 1, on 5 clean sheets and 2.827 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 15 → 18).

On long-term talent our Rating reads 24, 17th of 31 of the 31 centre-backs in the K League 1. At 30 Arab is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 3.7 reflects that trajectory.

Clean sheets

2.83 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 5 clean sheets across 34 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 0 goals and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 44.7% 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 23.5, Arab carries the 17th-highest potential of the centre-backs in the K League 1 of 31, 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 (2.83 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1× now → 0.7× projected in three years).
