JORIS KAYEMBE
Defender · Genk · Jupiler Pro League
“A steady full-back who keeps the flank clean and moving.”
GoalPost verdict
GoalPost score (GPS)
GoalPost read
J. Kayembe offers solid value as a veteran full back, with his recent best work at Genk still carrying weight. The league-level discount and his age past the usual peak window hold it down.

Analysis overview
Kayembe reads as a compact, reliable full-back who stays balanced in both phases. He offers width when Congo DR build, then gets back early to protect the channel and keep the back line organized. His game is about timing, clean positioning, and simple, useful actions rather than constant risk.
