Clean sheets

1.51 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume, with 4 clean sheets across 22 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (16th 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. Going forward he chipped in 3 goals and 4 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.32 goal involvements per 90, useful for a full-back.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 57.5% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Defensive numbers. Modest 1.51 defensive actions per 90 for the position.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 27.8, Araki carries the 3rd-highest potential of the full-backs in the J3 League (top 15%), and he is posting that for a lower-table side (FC Ryukyu finished 16th 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 light defensive volume (1.51 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90), with a bit more on the ball than most in the role. Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead.
