Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Fukagawa.

We hold a single season for Fukagawa, so there's no year-on-year comparison to draw yet — the read above is this campaign only.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 20, 37th of 71 of the 71 centre-backs in the J3 League. At 27 Fukagawa is in his prime years, and a market index of 1.7 reflects that trajectory.

Clean sheets

2.92 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 3 clean sheets across 15 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (18th 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 33.4% 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 19.8, Fukagawa carries the 37th-highest potential of the centre-backs in the J3 League of 71, and he is posting that for a relegation-threatened side (Kochi United finished 18th 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 moderate defensive volume (2.92 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.
