About the player
Ville Kumpu played every minute of Ilves's Europa League first qualifying round tie against Shakhtar Donetsk on 17 July 2025, a goalless draw, aged just 17. It came in the same breakout season that took him from Ilves's youth ranks into the first team, where he has since made three senior appearances.
The club moved to secure his future soon after: on 17 December 2025 Kumpu signed a new one-year contract extension running through to the end of the 2028 season. He has yet to score in the Veikkausliiga.
Kumpu's rise has been most visible with Finland's youth sides. He has moved up through the age groups from U15 to U19, and in early 2025 he captained the U17 team across four matches, including European Championship qualifiers.
At 193cm, no major injuries or transfer controversies have been recorded.
