□Personal Comment
"Everyone involved with FC Tokyo. I have decided to transfer to Cerezo Osaka. It was a short year, but I was able to fight alongside wonderful teammates and fans/supporters and feel the joy of being a player. Through playing on various stages such as J1, J3, and ACL, I believe I was able to grow not only as a player but also as a person without a doubt. From now on, I will continue to strive for higher goals in my own way. Thank you very much for this year!"
