Judged on this season alone, Ibayashi graded 7 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 22nd of 25 of the 25 full-backs in the J3 League, on 2 clean sheets and 2.967 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 1 → 7). Over the 4 seasons on record his form has held fairly steady, peaking in 2020/21.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 6, 25th of 25 of the 25 full-backs in the J3 League. At 35 Ibayashi is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 0.3 reflects that trajectory.

Clean sheets

2.97 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 2 clean sheets across 11 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (17th 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 0 goals and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 26.6% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Age curve. At 35, 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 5.8, Ibayashi carries the 25th-highest potential of the full-backs in the J3 League of 25 — though on just 11 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.97 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.6× and falling).
