Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Mori.
Judged on this season alone, Mori graded 18 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 32nd of 49 of the 49 defensive midfielders in the J1 League, on 1 goal, 1 assist and 1.997 defensive actions per 90.
We hold a single season for Mori, 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 52, top 9% of the 49 defensive midfielders in the J1 League. At 19 Mori is still climbing toward his ceiling, and a market index of 11.3 reflects that trajectory.
Output in context · Nagoya Grampus finished 16th of 20 · a lower-table side
2 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume, with 1 clean sheet across 11 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (16th 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 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.29 goal involvements per 90, useful for a defensive midfielder.
- Ceiling. High potential at just 19 — room to grow into a bigger role.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 35.1% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
- Defensive numbers. Modest 2 defensive actions per 90 for the position.
Outlook
With a Rating of 51.6, Mori carries the 4th-highest potential of the defensive midfielders in the J1 League of 49 — though on just 11 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as light defensive volume (2 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). At 19 the trajectory points up — potential sits near its ceiling (99/100) and market value should climb as minutes and output follow. With this floor already at 19, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.
