Output in context · KVC Westerlo finished 6th of 18 · an upper-table side
2.59 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 7 clean sheets across 21 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (6th of 18) 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 1 goal and 0 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 51.1% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
Outlook
With a Rating of 51.3, Kimura carries the 18th-highest potential of the centre-backs in the Jupiler Pro League of 35. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.59 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead.
