□ Takahiro YANAGI Player Comment

'I have decided to transfer to Montedio Yamagata on a temporary basis. I have been taken care of by Tokyo since my academy days, so it was a difficult decision to leave. However, in order to expand my potential, I have made this decision. I will definitely grow and want to come back to Tokyo. Thank you for your continued support.'
