Clean sheets

1.17 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume, with 4 clean sheets across 17 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (3rd 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.

Strengths

Availability. On the pitch for 67.4% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.

Outlook

With a Rating of 25.2, Yamamoto carries the 12th-highest potential of the full-backs in the J3 League of 19. Defensively he reads as light defensive volume (1.17 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). In the prime window — at or near peak market value, so the next two seasons are the ones to cash in or build around.

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 (~3), then tapers with age. At 26, Yamamoto sits on 2.7, at or near its peak. The blue line is Yamamoto's projected Rating — 25.2 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.
