Output in context · Kashiwa Reysol finished 2nd of 20 · a title-challenging side
4.91 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 9 clean sheets across 18 appearances. Behind a title-challenging side (2nd of 20) the side controls more games, so the defensive load is lighter — the value sits as much in composure and ball progression as in raw volume.
Strengths
- Defensive volume. 4.91 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 51.5% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.

With a Rating of 49.7, Kumasaka carries the 6th-highest potential of the defensive midfielders in the J1 League (top 13%). Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (4.91 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead.
