Today, we would like to announce that Takahiro YANAGI and Go HATANO from our club have been selected for the U-20 Japan national team for the AFC U-23 Championship Qualifiers in China 2018 (July 19-23 @ Cambodia) announced by the Japan Football Association (JFA).
 

□Takahiro YANAGI Comment

Since it's been a while since I've been active with the national team, I want to showcase everything I have. I will focus on playing for results, perform well so that I can continue to be selected in the future, and I hope to return to FC Tokyo having grown even a little.
 

Go HATANO Comment
I had a frustrating experience at the U-20 World Cup held in May, so this time I will work hard as a representative of Japan to achieve a good result. When I get to play in the match, I want to showcase the results of my daily practice and contribute to the team's victory.
