Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Muroya.

Judged on this season alone, Muroya graded 17 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 39th of 54 of the 54 full-backs in the J1 League, on 4 clean sheets and 3.424 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 35 → 17). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2024/25.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 19, 44th of 54 of the 54 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 reflects that trajectory.

Clean sheets

3.42 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 4 clean sheets across 17 appearances. Going forward he chipped in 0 goals and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 40.7% 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 19.2, Muroya carries the 44th-highest potential of the full-backs in the J1 League of 54. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (3.42 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.8× and falling).
