H. Nakahara is a 30-year-old attacking midfielder at Shimizu S-pulse, rated 25.2 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 262nd of 377 in the J1 League. An experienced operator, he has been a fringe squad member this season (29% of available minutes). He brings 0.36 goal contributions per 90 (0.18 goals, 0.18 assists). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Nakahara.
Judged on this season alone, Nakahara graded 12 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 38th of 51 of the 51 attacking midfielders in the J1 League, on 2 goals and 2 assists in 26 appearances (0.363 involvements per 90).
Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 20 → 12). Over the 4 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2024/25.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 25, 39th of 51 of the 51 attacking midfielders in the J1 League. At 30 Nakahara is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 3.4 reflects that trajectory.
Below his 2024/25 peak but holding a solid level — the platform for a return is there.
2 goals in 26 appearances (0.08 per game) — light end product the role wants to see climb. Add 2 assists for 4 goal contributions in all.
With a Rating of 25.2, Nakahara carries the 39th-highest potential of the attacking midfielders in the J1 League of 51, and he is posting that for a lower-table side (Shimizu S-pulse finished 14th of 20) — individual numbers are harder to earn on a struggling team, so his underlying level likely sits a touch above the ranking. In the final third he profiles as a productive contributor (0.36 goal contributions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1× now → 0.7× projected in three years).

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 (~7), then tapers with age. At 30, Nakahara sits on 3.4, past its peak and easing. The blue line is Nakahara's projected Rating — 25.2 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.
