On the season, Arai graded 2 for current form (age-blind), on 1 clean sheet and 0 defensive actions per 90.
We hold a single season for Arai, so there's no year-on-year comparison to draw yet — the read above is this campaign only.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 12. At 32 Arai is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 0.9 reflects that trajectory.
Output in context · V-varen Nagasaki finished 2nd of 20 · a title-challenging side
0 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume, with 1 clean sheet across 5 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.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 8.9% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
- Age curve. At 32, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
Rated 12 overall — below regular-starter level. Defensively he reads as light defensive volume (0 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.8× and falling).
