Matheus Bueno is a 27-year-old central midfielder at Shimizu S-pulse, rated 45.2 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 193rd of 874 in the J3 League. In his prime years, he has been an ever-present this season (97% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 3.12 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Bueno.
Judged on this season alone, Bueno graded 35 — a standout campaign that ranks top 3% of the 241 central midfielders in the J3 League, on 1 goal, 2 assists and 3.121 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 8 → 35). Across the 4 seasons we hold, it's his best return yet.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 45, top 23% of the 241 central midfielders in the J3 League. At 27 Bueno is in his prime years, and a market index of 34.4 reflects that trajectory.
A career still climbing — Bueno is at his peak right now, and the curve hasn't flattened.
3.12 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 12 clean sheets across 37 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (14th of 20) is harder than the bare numbers suggest: a back line under more pressure has to defend more often and protects fewer leads, so the volume — and any clean sheets — carry real weight. Going forward he chipped in 1 goal and 2 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
With a Rating of 45.2, Bueno carries the 54th-highest potential of the central midfielders in the J3 League (top 23%), and he is posting that for a lower-table side (Shimizu S-pulse finished 14th of 20) — individual numbers are harder to earn on a struggling team, so his underlying level likely sits a touch above the ranking. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (3.12 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). In the prime window — at or near peak market value, so the next two seasons are the ones to cash in or build around.

The gold line is market value — an index (not €) blending rating, age and league. It climbs through the early 20s, peaks around ages 23–27 (~34), then tapers with age. At 27, Bueno sits on 34.4, at or near its peak. The blue line is Bueno's projected Rating — 45.2 today — recomputed at each age, so it follows the same rise-and-fall as a career matures and declines. Solid = up to today; dashed = projected.
