□ Seiji KIMURA Player Comment
"I have decided to transfer to Kyoto Sanga F.C. on a temporary basis next season. I have been raised in Tokyo for 7 years since junior high school, so I have some anxiety about moving to another team, but at the same time, I have high expectations and am looking forward to it. In my first year as a professional, I only played in 3 games and couldn't contribute much to the team, but I will do my best to show you all how I have grown and become stronger in Kyoto!"
