Clean sheets

2.1 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 6 clean sheets across 15 appearances. Behind a title-challenging side (2nd 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.

Strengths

Ceiling. High potential at just 22 — room to grow into a bigger role.

Watch points

Game time. Only 33.9% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.

Outlook

With a Rating of 50.4, Tanaka carries the 6th-highest potential of the centre-backs in the J3 League (top 3%). Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.1 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 1.9×) with the best seasons likely ahead. With this floor already at 22, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.

Market valueRating

Solid = now · dashed = projected

The gold line is market value — an index (not €) blending rating, age and league. It climbs through the early 20s, peaks around ages 23–27 (~38), then tapers with age. At 22, Tanaka sits on 36.4, still climbing toward its peak. The blue line is Tanaka's projected Rating — 50.4 today — recomputed at each age, so it follows the same rise-and-fall as a career matures and declines. Solid = up to today; dashed = projected.
