Judged on this season alone, Muroya graded 34 — a strong campaign that ranks top 22% of the 23 full-backs in the J1 League, on 5 clean sheets and 4.026 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 17 → 34). Over the 7 seasons on record his form has trended upward, peaking in 2024/25.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 20, 23rd of 23 of the 23 full-backs in the J1 League. At 32 Muroya is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 3.7 reflects that trajectory.
Below his 2024/25 peak but holding a solid level — the platform for a return is there.
Output in context · FC Tokyo finished 3rd of 20 · an upper-table side
4.03 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 5 clean sheets across 7 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
- Defensive volume. 4.03 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 36.6% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
- Age curve. At 32, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
With a Rating of 20.3, Muroya carries the 23rd-highest potential of the full-backs in the J1 League of 23 — though on just 7 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (4.03 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.8× and falling).
