Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Inoue.
Judged on this season alone, Inoue graded 7 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 155th of 204 of the 204 centre-backs in the J3 League, on 1 clean sheet and 3.68 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 17 → 7). Over the 4 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2023/24.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 27, 142nd of 204 of the 204 centre-backs in the J3 League. At 29 Inoue is in his prime years, and a market index of 11.4 reflects that trajectory.
Past his 2023/24 peak — the recent trend is downward, so buyers are paying for what's left, not what was.
3.68 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 1 clean sheet across 11 appearances.
With a Rating of 27.2, Inoue carries the 142nd-highest potential of the centre-backs in the J3 League of 204 — though on just 11 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (3.68 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.1× now → 0.8× projected in three years).

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 (~21), then tapers with age. At 29, Inoue sits on 11.4, past its peak and easing. The blue line is Inoue's projected Rating — 27.2 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.
