Today, Yuto NAGATOMO, a player of our club, has been selected as a member of the SAMURAI BLUE (Japan national team) who will compete in the 2025 FIFA World Cup 26 Asian Final Qualifiers (3rd round) announced by the Japan Football Association (JFA) on March 2025. We would like to inform you of this.

□Nagatomo Player Comment
"I am honored to be selected for the Japan national team again this time."
However, before joining, there is a match against Avispa Fukuoka, so we will fight with all our might to deliver a victory to the fans and supporters of Tokyo. We will take the good energy gained from the Tokyo match and bring it to the activities of the Japan national team.
And as we aim for our 5th World Cup appearance, we will first focus on giving our all in practice and matches in order to secure our spot through our own efforts.
Thank you for your support.
"World Cup, here we gooooo!"
