R. Yamada is a 28-year-old central midfielder at V-varen Nagasaki, rated 31.8 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 526th of 874 in the J3 League. An experienced operator, he has been a fringe squad member this season (18.3% of available minutes). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Yamada.
Judged on this season alone, Yamada graded 0 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 207th of 241 of the 241 central midfielders in the J3 League, on 0 goals, 0 assists and 0 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 1 → 0).
On long-term talent our Rating reads 32, 151st of 241 of the 241 central midfielders in the J3 League. At 28 Yamada is in his prime years, and a market index of 14.5 reflects that trajectory.
0 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume, with 2 clean sheets across 9 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.
With a Rating of 31.8, Yamada carries the 151st-highest potential of the central midfielders in the J3 League of 241 — 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 (1.2× now → 0.9× projected in three years).
Generated from Field Insider's rating model · AI-written analysis to follow.
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 (~24), then tapers with age. At 28, Yamada sits on 14.5, past its peak and easing. The blue line is Yamada's projected Rating — 31.8 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.
