Squad depthAttacking midfielder

K. Tanaka is a 26-year-old attacking midfielder at JEF United Chiba, rated 34.8 overall by Field Insider's model. In his prime years, he has been a fringe squad member this season (31.7% of available minutes). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Tanaka.

On the season, Tanaka graded 8 for current form (age-blind), on 2 goals and 0 assists in 14 appearances (0.158 involvements per 90).

Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 8 → 9). Across the 3 seasons we hold, it's his best return yet.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 35. At 26 Tanaka is in his prime years, and a market index of 6.3 reflects that trajectory.

2 goals in 14 appearances (0.14 per game) — light end product the role wants to see climb.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 31.7% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Output. 0.16 contributions per 90 is light for an attacking role — end product needs to climb.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

Rated 34.8 overall — developing / rotation level. In the final third he profiles as a work-in-progress on end product (0.16 goal contributions per 90). In the prime window — at or near peak market value, so the next two seasons are the ones to cash in or build around.
