Judged on this season alone, Ogawa graded 12 — a strong campaign that ranks top 22% of the 61 centre-backs in the J3 League, on 5 clean sheets and 1.554 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 0 → 12). Across the 3 seasons we hold, it's his best return yet.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 7, 56th of 61 of the 61 centre-backs in the J3 League. At 34 Ogawa is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 0.3 reflects that trajectory.
Ogawa is operating at his career peak — the 2025/26 level is the level.
Output in context · Matsumoto Yamaga finished 15th of 20 · a lower-table side
1.55 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume, with 5 clean sheets across 19 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (15th of 20) 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.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 44% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
- Defensive numbers. Modest 1.55 defensive actions per 90 for the position.
- Age curve. At 34, 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 7.3, Ogawa carries the 56th-highest potential of the centre-backs in the J3 League of 61, and he is posting that for a lower-table side (Matsumoto Yamaga finished 15th of 20) — 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 light defensive volume (1.55 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.6× and falling).
