Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 31 → 0). Over the 7 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2023/24.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 16. At 31 Gustafson is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 2 reflects that trajectory.
Past his 2023/24 peak — the recent trend is downward, so buyers are paying for what's left, not what was.
Output in context · Urawa finished 9th of 20 · a mid-table side
0 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume across 2 appearances.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 1.5% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
- Age curve. At 31, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
Rated 16.3 overall — below regular-starter level. Defensively he reads as light defensive volume (0 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.9× and falling).
