Clean sheets

3.2 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 5 clean sheets across 8 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (3rd of 20) 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.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 41.2% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.

Outlook

With a Rating of 49.7, Inamura carries the 7th-highest potential of the centre-backs in the J1 League of 37 — though on just 8 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (3.2 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead.
