□ Personal Comment
"Today, I am leaving the club that I have been with for 11 years since 2007. During my time here, I have many memories, but my gratitude towards the players and staff who have fought alongside me cannot be expressed in words. And this season, I am deeply sorry for disappointing the expectations of the fans and supporters. Although I am leaving the club, I will continue to support FC Tokyo from the shadows, hoping that they will make a big leap next season and achieve their long-awaited league championship."
