Clean sheets

2.77 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 4 clean sheets across 21 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (18th 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. Going forward he chipped in 1 goal and 6 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.36 goal involvements per 90, useful for a full-back.
  • Creativity. 0.31 assists per 90 — a genuine creative outlet.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 51.3% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 26.7, Suzuki carries the 4th-highest potential of the full-backs in the J3 League (top 20%), and he is posting that for a relegation-threatened side (Kochi United finished 18th 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 moderate defensive volume (2.77 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90), with a bit more on the ball than most in the role. Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead.
