Clean sheets

0 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume, with 3 clean sheets across 9 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (5th 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.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 21.3% 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 22.3, Graça carries the 49th-highest potential of the centre-backs in the J2 League of 70 — though on just 9 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as light defensive volume (0 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.1× now → 0.8× projected in three years).
