Ryotaro Ito

I'll admit I'm a sucker for an Osaka kid who actually made it onto a pro pitch, and Ryotaro Ito hits that soft spot for me instantly. Born in 1998, an Aquarius, year of the Tiger; he gives off that quietly stubborn, do-it-my-own-way energy I always root for. At 175cm he isn't towering over anyone, but football has never really been about size; it's about reading the game a half-second early and slipping through gaps with your feet and your brain, and I love watching the medium-build players who survive on craft and timing rather than raw power. I can't pretend to know every match he's played, but I picture a guy grinding every week, doing the unglamorous running for the team. That's the type I quietly cheer for, the local lad some Osaka kid wants to grow up and become.
