Clean sheets

4.36 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 3 clean sheets across 11 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (15th 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 2 goals and 2 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.43 goal involvements per 90, useful for a full-back.
Defensive volume. 4.36 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

Game time. Only 24.7% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

Rated 37.7 overall — developing / rotation level. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (4.36 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90), with a bit more on the ball than most in the role. In the prime window — at or near peak market value, so the next two seasons are the ones to cash in or build around.

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 (~10), then tapers with age. At 27, Tsunoda sits on 10.3, at or near its peak. The blue line is Tsunoda's projected Rating — 37.7 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.
