On long-term talent our Rating reads 50, 53rd of 69 of the 69 attacking midfielders in the Championship. At 29 Sakamoto is in his prime years, and a market index of 14 reflects that trajectory.
Read the appearance count in context: Sakamoto missed 6 games through injury (inactive, injured) out of roughly 46 this season. The 35 he did play is a solid return on the time he was fit, and his ratings are weighted toward those games rather than the ones he sat out injured.
Below his 2020/21 peak but holding a solid level — the platform for a return is there.
