A. Ito is a 27-year-old defensive midfielder at Gent, rated 45.5 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 205th of 292 in the Jupiler Pro League. In his prime years, he has been a rotation option this season (59.2% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 2.76 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Ito.
Judged on this season alone, Ito graded 32 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 29th of 58 of the 58 defensive midfielders in the Jupiler Pro League, on 4 goals, 3 assists and 2.761 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 33 → 32). Over the 5 seasons on record his form has held fairly steady, peaking in 2023/24.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 46, 43rd of 58 of the 58 defensive midfielders in the Jupiler Pro League. At 27 Ito is in his prime years, and a market index of 40 reflects that trajectory.
Past his 2023/24 peak — the recent trend is downward, so buyers are paying for what's left, not what was.
2.76 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 7 clean sheets across 30 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (5th 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 4 goals and 3 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
With a Rating of 45.5, Ito carries the 43rd-highest potential of the defensive midfielders in the Jupiler Pro League of 58, and he is posting that for a relegation-threatened side (Gent finished 5th 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 (2.76 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). In the prime window — at or near peak market value, so the next two seasons are the ones to cash in or build around.
Generated from Field Insider's rating model · AI-written analysis to follow.
The gold line is market value — an index (not €) blending rating, age and league. It climbs through the early 20s, peaks around ages 23–27 (~40), then tapers with age. At 27, Ito sits on 40, at or near its peak. The blue line is Ito's projected Rating — 45.5 today — recomputed at each age, so it follows the same rise-and-fall as a career matures and declines. Solid = up to today; dashed = projected.
