Output in context · Matsumoto Yamaga finished 15th of 20 · a lower-table side
6 goals in 22 appearances (0.27 per game), a meaningful share of the load for a lower-table side. He also laid on 3 assists, so the all-round involvement reads 9 goal contributions (0.41 per appearance).
Strengths
- Final-third output. 0.41 goal contributions per 90 (0.27 goals, 0.14 assists) — productive for the role.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 57.9% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
- Defensive numbers. Modest 1.41 defensive actions per 90 for the position.
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
With a Rating of 26.2, Kikui carries the 9th-highest potential of the attacking midfielders in the J3 League of 18, 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. In the final third he profiles as a productive contributor (0.41 goal contributions per 90). In the prime window — at or near peak market value, so the next two seasons are the ones to cash in or build around.
