On the season, Itakura graded 22 for current form (age-blind), on 5 clean sheets and 3.067 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 22 → 22). Over the 7 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2020/21.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 40. At 29 Itakura is in his prime years, and a market index of 10.2 reflects that trajectory.
Below his 2020/21 peak but holding a solid level — the platform for a return is there.
Output in context · Ajax finished 5th of 18 · an upper-table side
3.07 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 5 clean sheets across 19 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (5th of 18) 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 0 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 42.6% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
Rated 40.1 overall — developing / rotation level. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (3.07 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.1× now → 0.8× projected in three years).
