□Daiki NIWA Player Comment
"Hello everyone, it's been a while."
I want to go to Spain now. I have decided to go to Spain because I want to play soccer there.
I will challenge myself to see how much I can do with what I have learned in the 18 years in the Japanese J-League!
In the future, I will be able to say that I am who I am today because I have experienced the time of Corona! Let's live through and overcome this current era together. And let's meet again with smiles!!
Do it while you can, just do it! There's no other way!
Let's go Tokyo!! Let's go Japan!! Let's go Spain!! Let's go everyone!!」
