Output in context · Kashima finished 1st of 20 · a title-challenging side
3.77 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 4 clean sheets across 18 appearances. Behind a title-challenging side (1st 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 0 goals and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Defensive volume. 3.77 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.
- Ceiling. High potential at just 22 — room to grow into a bigger role.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 23% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
Outlook
With a Rating of 50.9, Tsukui carries the 6th-highest potential of the full-backs in the J1 League of 54 — though on just 18 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (3.77 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 1.9×) with the best seasons likely ahead. With this floor already at 22, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.
