Judged on this season alone, Suzuki graded 36 — a solid campaign that ranks top 32% of the 29 goalkeepers in the Serie A, on 7 clean sheets across 20 appearances.

Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 13 → 36). Across the 5 seasons we hold, it's his best return yet.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 79, top 11% of the 29 goalkeepers in the Serie A. At 23 Suzuki is still climbing toward his ceiling, and a market index of 49.2 reflects that trajectory.

Read the appearance count in context: Suzuki missed 12 games through injury (finger) out of roughly 38 this season. The 20 he did play is a solid return on the time he was fit, and his ratings are weighted toward those games rather than the ones he sat out injured.
