We hold a single season for Rikiyasu, so there's no year-on-year comparison to draw yet — the read above is this campaign only.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 22, 46th of 100 of the 100 central midfielders in the J3 League. At 28 Rikiyasu is in his prime years, and a market index of 1.2 reflects that trajectory.
Output in context · Matsumoto Yamaga finished 15th of 20 · a lower-table side
1.64 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume, with 4 clean sheets across 16 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (15th of 20) is harder than the bare numbers suggest: a back line under more pressure has to defend more often and protects fewer leads, so the volume — and any clean sheets — carry real weight.
Strengths
- Availability. On the pitch for 73.3% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
Watch points
- Defensive numbers. Modest 1.64 defensive actions per 90 for the position.
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
With a Rating of 22.4, Rikiyasu carries the 46th-highest potential of the central midfielders in the J3 League of 100, and he is posting that for a lower-table side (Matsumoto Yamaga finished 15th of 20) — individual numbers are harder to earn on a struggling team, so his underlying level likely sits a touch above the ranking. Defensively he reads as light defensive volume (1.64 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.2× now → 0.9× projected in three years).
