Impact Haraguchi scored two goals with six assists across 41 Bundesliga appearances (29 starts) during his season-and-a-half stint with Union Berlin, but his role was clearly decreasing in this campaign. The 31-year-old midfielder is now moving to Stuttgart, where he could push to once again become a consistent starter in the league.

Role decreasing Haraguchi made eight appearances (four starts) with no goal contributions in the first half of the Bundesliga.

Impact Haraguchi was a star in his opening campaign with Union Berlin, scoring twice and adding six assists. He's struggled to show any of the flashes from that debut season, and is looking much more like the underwhelming fantasy option he was with Hannover.

The midfielder couldn't add many substantial contributions during the rest of the way, though, which led him to be subbed off after 66 minutes. Haraguchi finished his first campaign wearing Union colors with two goals and six assists and started seven of the last eight matches, so we could expect him having a featured role on the rotation for next season.

Impact Haraguchi scored his second goal of the season during Saturday's one-sided win. The midfielder was dangerous during the 60 minutes he spent on the pitch, though fantasy managers will notice that he has rarely played the full 90. Haraguchi will be a minimal fantasy option next time out, against a tougher Eintracht Frankfurt side.

Impact Haraguchi has spent plenty of time throughout his career in the Bundesliga, though he most recently played in the second division for Hannover, scoring nine goals and seven assists in 34 matches. After a season in which Hannover didn't finish that far above the relegation places on its own, Haraguchi made it clear he wanted to return to the top flight. He'll try to offer more support as the second forward alongside Max Kruse, who scored 11 goals and provided five assists in just 22 matches this season.
