Fukuda is a consistent presence in midfield, averaging over 11 carries and 44 metres per game across four U20 Championship appearances — numbers that point to a centre used regularly in the gain-line battle. His tackle counts are equally steady, with a single-game peak of nine tackles underlining his willingness to put in the defensive shift. The combination of volume carrying and active defending suggests a player trusted to do the hard work on both sides of the ball.
