Scout report
D. Maekawa is a 32-year-old goalkeeper at Vissel Kobe, rated 16.3 overall by Field Insider's model. A seasoned veteran, he has been a fringe squad member this season (15.8% of available minutes). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Maekawa.
On the season, Maekawa graded 15 for current form (age-blind), on 2 clean sheets across 3 appearances.
Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 40 → 15). Over the 7 seasons on record his form has trended upward, peaking in 2023/24.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 16. At 32 Maekawa is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 2.6 reflects that trajectory.
Past his 2023/24 peak — the recent trend is downward, so buyers are paying for what's left, not what was.
Output in context · Vissel Kobe finished 4th of 20 · an upper-table side
2 clean sheets in 3 appearances (67% of games). Playing behind an upper-table side (4th of 20) means a more protected goal, so the read is about command and distribution as much as raw shut-outs.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 15.8% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
- Age curve. At 32, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
Rated 16.3 overall — below regular-starter level. A limited game time keeper carrying the gloves this season. Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.8× and falling).
