Masaya Okugawa

Masaya Okugawa, at 29, offers an intriguing mix of attacking flair and experience for Kyoto Sanga in the J-League. As a left winger, his style of play is heavily tilted towards being a significant goal threat, consistently finding himself in positions to score and doing so with impressive efficiency. His goal efficiency is particularly noteworthy, highlighting a clinical edge that many forwards might envy. However, while Okugawa's chance creation is decent, it's his ability to retain the ball that could use some refining. His ball retention stats suggest he might struggle to maintain possession under pressure, occasionally leading to lost opportunities. Though not known for his progressive play, either through carries or passing, Okugawa compensates with his knack for being in the right place at the right time. A scout report on him would certainly highlight his knack for popping up in dangerous areas, yet also note a need to bolster his involvement in build-up play to enhance his overall impact on the game.
