Output in context · GIF Sundsvall finished 11th of 16 · a lower-table side
1.53 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume, with 3 clean sheets across 27 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (11th of 16) 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 2 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.34 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central midfielder.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 39.1% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
- Defensive numbers. Modest 1.53 defensive actions per 90 for the position.
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
With a Rating of 14.7, Kagayama carries the 55th-highest potential of the central midfielders in the Superettan of 65, and he is posting that for a lower-table side (GIF Sundsvall finished 11th of 16) — 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 (1.53 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90), with a bit more on the ball than most in the role. Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1× now → 0.7× projected in three years).
