Scout report
H. Mae is a 31-year-old central midfielder at Machida Zelvia, rated 25 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 134th of 193 on scout potential in the J1 League. A seasoned veteran, he has been a rotation option this season (52.2% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 1.71 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Mae.
Judged on this season alone, Mae graded 18 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 37th of 41 of the 41 central midfielders in the J1 League, on 1 goal, 0 assists and 1.713 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 31 → 8). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2021/22.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 25, 33rd of 41 of the 41 central midfielders in the J1 League. At 31 Mae is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 3.6 reflects that trajectory.
Past his 2021/22 peak — the recent trend is downward, so buyers are paying for what's left, not what was.
Output in context · Machida Zelvia finished 2nd of 20 · a title-challenging side
1.71 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume, with 3 clean sheets across 10 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. Going forward he chipped in 1 goal and 0 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 52.2% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
- Defensive numbers. Modest 1.71 defensive actions per 90 for the position.
- Age curve. At 31, 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 25, Mae carries the 33rd-highest potential of the central midfielders in the J1 League of 41 — though on just 10 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as light defensive volume (1.71 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.9× and falling).
