Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 24 → 24). Over the 4 seasons on record his form has trended upward, peaking in 2023/24.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 23, 50th of 73 of the 73 centre-backs in the J2 League. At 30 Iwatake is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 3.4 reflects that trajectory.
A career still climbing — Iwatake is at his peak right now, and the curve hasn't flattened.
Output in context · Yokohama FC finished 5th of 20 · an upper-table side
3.7 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 3 clean sheets across 11 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (5th 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
- Defensive volume. 3.7 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 52.6% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
With a Rating of 22.8, Iwatake carries the 50th-highest potential of the centre-backs in the J2 League of 73 — though on just 11 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (3.7 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1× now → 0.7× projected in three years).
