□Yuto NAGATOMO Player Comment
"Bonjourno! It's been a while since I last saw the FC Tokyo family."
I am very happy to be able to come back to this place that I love after 11 years.
I have been fighting with my team in various countries such as Italy, Turkey, and France for my own growth. I want to give back all the experiences I gained there for Tokyo's victory.
When I close my eyes and think back to 11 years ago, I remember the ambitious time when I was full of ambition. And now, it is a determination to continue working with even more feelings and passion every day.
The difficult situation continues to be affected by the infection, but we will continue to work to see you wearing the blue and red uniforms and to make you feel better. Thank you for your support! Let's meet at Ajinomoto Stadium!"
