In his prime years, he has been a regular starter this season (77.5% of available minutes). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Mitsuta.
Judged on this season alone, Mitsuta graded 11 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 40th of 51 of the 51 attacking midfielders in the J1 League, on 2 goals and 0 assists in 35 appearances (0.068 involvements per 90).
Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 22 → 11). Over the 4 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2022/23.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 43, top 30% of the 51 attacking midfielders in the J1 League. At 27 Mitsuta is in his prime years, and a market index of 11.8 reflects that trajectory.
Past his 2022/23 peak — the recent trend is downward, so buyers are paying for what's left, not what was.
