``Dear Urawa Reds, this is Thiago Santana, transferred from Shimizu S-Pulse.
I am very happy and proud to be part of this great club.
I'm really motivated to start practicing with my new teammates as soon as possible. Not only that, but I'm also looking forward to my first contact with Urawa Reds supporters.

I received invitations from other clubs during the off-season, but when I received the invitation from Urawa Reds, I decided to step up and had no hesitation. There is no doubt that I made the best choice.

In order to achieve the club's goals, we promise to practice hard, work hard and be dedicated, just as the Japanese have taught us. I am confident that if we all work together, the 2024 season will be the best season for Urawa Reds. Let's fight together, walk together, and celebrate together."
