Clean sheets

3.38 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 5 clean sheets across 15 appearances. Behind a title-challenging side (2nd 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. Going forward he chipped in 0 goals and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.

Outlook

Rated 13.7 overall — below regular-starter level. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (3.38 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.7× and falling).

Market valueRating

Solid = now · dashed = projected

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 (~5), then tapers with age. At 33, Harakawa sits on 1.7, past its peak and easing. The blue line is Harakawa's projected Rating — 13.7 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.
