[Player Comments]
He will be transferred to Sanfrecce Hiroshima on a permanent basis.
First of all, thank you for all your support over the past year. I am truly disappointed and sorry that I was not able to contribute to the team due to my own lack of ability.
Among those times, playing in the place where I was born and raised, which has been my dream and goal since turning professional, was a truly happy time for me.
Although I will no longer be an Urawa player, I will continue to support Urawa Reds as a Saitama resident.
Thank you very much for the short time we spent together.
