□Kento HASHIMOTO Player's Comment
"I have proudly lived most of my life as 'Kento HASHIMOTO of FC Tokyo' since joining FC Tokyo's soccer school at the age of 10, and from 2018, I have been honored to wear the number 18 of Naohiro ISHIKAWA, aiming to become a symbol of the team. However, this time, I have decided to pursue my childhood dream of playing overseas."
I am truly grateful to the club that supported my dream of overseas challenge and the coaches who have guided me since I started playing football.
Looking back on my time as a professional, there have been many difficulties, painful moments, and regrets. However, I was able to overcome them all thanks to the support of my family, teammates, staff, and all the fans and supporters.
I feel very lonely thinking that I can't meet everyone at Kodaira Ground or Ajinomoto, but I want to challenge myself with the "FC Tokyo spirit" and the "blue and red spirit" that I have cultivated so far, even in a new place!
I will do my best so that my performance can reach Japan, and I would be happy if you could continue to pay attention to me!
Finally, thank you very much to everyone who has been involved with FC Tokyo for a long time.
"We sincerely hope for FC Tokyo's victory."
