□Yuto NAGATOMO Comment
"Good morning! It's been a while, FC Tokyo family.
I am very happy to be able to return to this place I love after 11 years.
During this time, I have fought with various teams in Italy, Turkey, and France for my own growth. I want to return all the experiences gained there for the victory of Tokyo.
When I close my eyes and think back to 11 years ago, I remember the ambition I had at that time. And now, I am determined to work every day with even greater feelings and passion.
The difficult situation due to the impact of the infectious disease continues, but we will work hard to bring you some cheer by showing you our players in the blue and red uniforms, so please support us! Let's meet at Ajinomoto!
