Clean sheets

0 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume, with 2 clean sheets across 10 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (19th 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.

Outlook

With a Rating of 23.6, Itakura carries the 45th-highest potential of the centre-backs in the J2 League of 70 — though on just 10 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as light defensive volume (0 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.2× now → 0.9× projected in three years).

Value & potential by age

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 23–27 (~4), then tapers with age. At 28, Itakura sits on 2.5, past its peak and easing. The blue line is Itakura's projected Rating — 23.6 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.
