□Leon NOZAWA Comment
"First of all, thank you for your unwavering and passionate support in every match, pushing us forward.
I have decided to transfer to Matsumoto Yamaga FC on a developmental loan.
Over the past six months, I have had various experiences and received many opportunities, but I was unable to deliver results and meet the expectations of the fans and supporters, which made me feel my own lack of ability.
As someone who fights for the club and as a blue-red warrior, I have come to this decision because I believe that I cannot contribute to the team's victory and the future of Tokyo in this way.
The cheers when I played with the emblem at Ajinomoto Stadium still resonate passionately in my heart.
I want to build it up from scratch again so that we can respond with results and make it something much bigger.
As a smiling striker, I will return having grown significantly.
I truly appreciate the warm welcome back, even if it was for a short time.
I will do my best so that I can return with pride, so please continue to support me!
Thank you. And I'm off!
