Outlook

With a Rating of 7.2, Kato carries the 18th-highest potential of the attacking midfielders in the J3 League of 18 — though on just 13 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. In the final third he profiles as a productive contributor (0.44 goal contributions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.7× and falling).

Market valueRating

Solid = now · dashed = projected

The gold line is market value — an index (not €) blending rating, age and league. It climbs through the early 20s, peaks around ages 22–27 (~1), then tapers with age. At 33, Kato sits on 0.4, past its peak and easing. The blue line is Kato's projected Rating — 7.2 today — recomputed at each age, so it follows the same rise-and-fall as a career matures and declines. Solid = up to today; dashed = projected.
