□ Personal Comment
"Dear everyone who loves FC Tokyo, Happy New Year. I, Kota Mizunuma, have decided to transfer to Cerezo Osaka. I remember being warmly welcomed as a teammate by FC Tokyo about a year ago, and it made me very happy. It was a short year, but I had many experiences on various stages and it became a very intense season. I had a lot of worries about transferring in just one year. I regret not being able to fulfill my responsibility towards winning a title, but I will do my best to make sure this experience is not wasted in my future soccer career. Thank you very much."
