4 clean sheets in 11 appearances (36% of games). Keeping that many behind a relegation-threatened side (19th of 20) — a side that concedes more — points to a busy, productive season between the posts.

Outlook

With a Rating of 27.3, Suárez carries the 22nd-highest potential of the goalkeepers in the J1 League of 28 — though on just 11 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. A rotation minutes keeper carrying the gloves this season. 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 (~12), then tapers with age. At 30, Suárez sits on 5.7, past its peak and easing. The blue line is Suárez's projected Rating — 27.3 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.
