We hold a single season for Yamanaka, so there's no year-on-year comparison to draw yet — the read above is this campaign only.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 20, 45th of 96 of the 96 central midfielders in the J3 League. At 27 Yamanaka is in his prime years, and a market index of 1.7 reflects that trajectory.
Output in context · Parceiro Nagano finished 19th of 20 · a relegation-threatened side
2.57 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 4 clean sheets across 21 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (19th 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.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 41% 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 20.2, Yamanaka carries the 45th-highest potential of the central midfielders in the J3 League of 96, and he is posting that for a relegation-threatened side (Parceiro Nagano finished 19th 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 (2.57 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.
