Scout report
K. Misao is a 30-year-old central midfielder at Kashima, rated 29.2 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 235th of 377 on scout potential in the J1 League. An experienced operator, he has been a rotation option this season (52.8% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 4.73 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Misao.
Judged on this season alone, Misao graded 18 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 39th of 65 of the 65 central midfielders in the J1 League, on 0 goals, 0 assists and 4.732 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 17 → 18). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2022/23.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 29, 41st of 65 of the 65 central midfielders in the J1 League. At 30 Misao is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 4 reflects that trajectory.
Below his 2022/23 peak but holding a solid level — the platform for a return is there.
Output in context · Kashima finished 1st of 20 · a title-challenging side
4.73 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 8 clean sheets across 29 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.
Strengths
- Defensive volume. 4.73 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 52.8% 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 29.2, Misao carries the 41st-highest potential of the central midfielders in the J1 League of 65. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (4.73 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1× now → 0.7× projected in three years).
