My Take
I'll be honest, the moment I learned this guy was born in 2002 and plays football, I got a little soft on him. He's right in the heart of the Reiwa generation, young enough that his whole story is still being written, and to me that's half the fun. I picture a kid from Yamaguchi, that quiet Seto Inland Sea calm at his back, grinding it out on a chewed-up pitch and chasing the ball until his lungs burn. He came up through the JFA Academy and Albirex Niigata before moving to Sparta Rotterdam in the Netherlands, and he reads like the type who stacks the boring fundamentals brick by brick instead of chasing headlines. I'm not in a rush with players like this. I'd rather just keep half an eye on him and see what kind of face he's wearing a few seasons from now.
