Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Yamashita.

On the season, Yamashita graded 4 for current form (age-blind), on 1 goal and 0 assists in 12 appearances (0.21 involvements per 90).

Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 0 → 4). Over the 5 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2021/22.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 22. At 30 Yamashita is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 3.1 reflects that trajectory.

1 goal in 12 appearances (0.08 per game) — light end product the role wants to see climb.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 12.5% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Output. 0.21 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 22.4 overall — below regular-starter level. In the final third he profiles as a work-in-progress on end product (0.21 goal contributions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1× now → 0.7× projected in three years).
