Scout report

Experienced headCentral defender

T. Wada is a 36-year-old central defender at Ventforet Kofu, rated 6.4 overall by Field Insider's model. A seasoned veteran, he has been a fringe squad member this season (6.8% of available minutes). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Wada.

On the season, Wada graded 6 for current form (age-blind), on 1 clean sheet and 0 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 8 → 3). Over the 4 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2021/22.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 6. At 36 Wada is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 0.5 reflects that trajectory.

Below his 2021/22 peak but holding a solid level — the platform for a return is there.

Clean sheets

0 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume, with 1 clean sheet across 3 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.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 6.8% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Age curve. At 36, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

Rated 6.4 overall — below regular-starter level. Defensively he reads as light defensive volume (0 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.6× and falling).
