Output in context · Kochi United finished 18th of 20 · a relegation-threatened side
1.91 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume, with 5 clean sheets across 22 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (18th 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 2 goals and 3 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.23 goal involvements per 90, useful for a full-back.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 57.9% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
- Defensive numbers. Modest 1.91 defensive actions per 90 for the position.
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
With a Rating of 25, Kozuki carries the 10th-highest potential of the full-backs in the J3 League (top 40%), and he is posting that for a relegation-threatened side (Kochi United finished 18th of 20) — individual numbers are harder to earn on a struggling team, so his underlying level likely sits a touch above the ranking. Defensively he reads as light defensive volume (1.91 tackles, blocks & interceptions 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.
