Scout report
Patrick William is a 29-year-old central defender at Kyoto Sanga, rated 27.9 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 246th of 377 on scout potential in the J1 League. An experienced operator, he has been a fringe squad member this season (19.6% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 3.36 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on William.
Judged on this season alone, William graded 8 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 56th of 64 of the 64 centre-backs in the J1 League, on 2 clean sheets and 3.358 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 11 → 8). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2021/22.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 28, 40th of 64 of the 64 centre-backs in the J1 League. At 29 William is in his prime years, and a market index of 4.2 reflects that trajectory.
Past his 2021/22 peak — the recent trend is downward, so buyers are paying for what's left, not what was.
Output in context · Kyoto Sanga finished 3rd of 20 · an upper-table side
3.36 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 2 clean sheets across 17 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (3rd 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.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 19.6% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
With a Rating of 27.9, William carries the 40th-highest potential of the centre-backs in the J1 League of 64 — though on just 17 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (3.36 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.1× now → 0.8× projected in three years).
