□Yuto NAGATOMO Player Comment
"Bonjourno! It's been a while since I've seen the FC Tokyo family."
I am very happy to be able to return to this place that I love after 11 years.
I have fought with my team in various countries such as Italy, Turkey, and France for my own growth. I want to give back all the experiences I gained there for the victory in Tokyo.
When I close my eyes and think back to 11 years ago, I remember the time when I was full of ambition. And now, I am prepared to work every day with even more passion and determination.
The difficult situation continues due to the impact of the infection, but we will continue to work hard to see you wearing the blue and red uniform and to cheer you up. Thank you for your support! Let's meet at Ajinomoto Stadium!"
