On long-term talent our Rating reads 29, 34th of 54 of the 54 full-backs in the J1 League. At 31 Nagato is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 6 reflects that trajectory.
Nagato is operating at his career peak — the 2025/26 level is the level.
3.14 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 10 clean sheets across 36 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. Going forward he chipped in 1 goal and 2 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
With a Rating of 29.1, Nagato carries the 34th-highest potential of the full-backs in the J1 League of 54. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (3.14 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.9× and falling).

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 (~13), then tapers with age. At 31, Nagato sits on 6, past its peak and easing. The blue line is Nagato's projected Rating — 29.1 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.
