Player Kobayashi Comment
I am very pleased to have been selected for the U-21 Japan national team.
I think it is a valuable opportunity to confirm my current level by competing against overseas players of the same age group.
I will not waste this time and will do my best with responsibility and pride as a representative player.
Thank you for your support"
