Clean sheets

3 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 8 clean sheets across 25 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (3rd of 17) the side controls more games, so the defensive load is lighter — the value sits as much in composure and ball progression as in raw volume. Going forward he chipped in 3 goals and 0 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Availability. On the pitch for 64.7% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.

Watch points

  • Age curve. At 35, 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 15.1, Haraguchi carries the 49th-highest potential of the central midfielders in the Challenger Pro League of 54. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (3 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.6× and falling).
