Scout report

Experienced headCentre-forward

Y. Yamagishi is a 33-year-old centre-forward at Nagoya Grampus, rated 14.6 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 174th of 193 on scout potential in the J1 League. A seasoned veteran, he has been a rotation option this season (35.4% of available minutes). He brings 0.3 goal contributions per 90 (0.3 goals, 0 assists). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Yamagishi.

Judged on this season alone, Yamagishi graded 14 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 16th of 28 of the 28 centre-forwards in the J1 League, on 2 goals and 0 assists in 10 appearances (0.298 involvements per 90).

Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 21 → 14). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2023/24.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 15, 26th of 28 of the 28 centre-forwards in the J1 League. At 33 Yamagishi is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 2.3 reflects that trajectory.

2 goals in 10 appearances (0.2 per game) — light end product the role wants to see climb.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 35.4% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Output. 0.3 contributions per 90 is light for an attacking role — end product needs to climb.
  • Age curve. At 33, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 14.6, Yamagishi carries the 26th-highest potential of the centre-forwards in the J1 League of 28 — though on just 10 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. In the final third he profiles as a work-in-progress on end product (0.3 goal contributions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.7× and falling).
