Scored a goal tonight: 1201199644287614977 is not a valid tweet id His contract ends by the end of this season and Galatasaray told him they are not interested in renewing his contract and he can look for another club in this winter transfer window.
He can come back to Italy and join some outsider little club just to face his former club and give them some greetings.
Unfortunately, Galatasaray signed an Uruguay left-back and he was the starter in their last league match. He is just 21-years old and had been capped by Uruguay. Not a player over 36 and past his prime such as Nagatomo. Galatasaray made it clear that they are not willing to renew Nagatomo’s contract, which is going to end this summer. In the meanwhile, it is reported in the Turkish media that Bologna sporting director denied their interest in Nagatomo. It seems Nagatomo is set to be a free agent next summer.
https://headlines.yahoo.co.jp/article?a=20200201-00360417-footballc-socc Galatasaray froze the contract of Yuto Nagatomo, and he is no longer a registered player in their squad. I suppose that this means he can be treated similar to free-agent and can sign for any club outside the transfer-window.
Nagatomo is linked to Vasco da Gama. As Japanese clubs can not afford his salary, his likely destination is clubs who is willing to pay his salary and have an opened transfer window.
Guarin posted a “welcome to Vasco” message to Nagatomo on his Instagram story, and I believe this is where the story came from. I doubt Guarin will post such thing If it is not true.
Actually, what he said is "Come play with me at Vasco, mate! Their supporters are the best!" He said that because the supporters are already trying to do the same thing the Botafogo fans did in order to bring Honda.
Former Vasco, Kashima and Verdy player Bismarck is trying to convince a Japanese sponsor to help bring Nagatomo to Vasco: https://www.netvasco.com.br/n/24635...o-vasco?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=twitter
Whats happening to Yuto? No news about club. Just found this. Last practice. 🥋 Galatasaray’daki son antrenmanı öncesi Yuto Nagatomo 👋 😢 🇯🇵 pic.twitter.com/IidKR3vMkl— Galatasaray SK (@GalatasaraySK) July 2, 2020
He is linked to Serie B league leaders Benevento, the team is managed/coached by former Italian international Filippo Inzaghi, and is looking for veterns to boost their squad in next season's Serie A. With 6 matches left to play they are leading Serie B by 11-points difference to their closest opponent, and they only need 3 points in their next 6 matches to secure promotion. Inzaghi's former experience with Japanese players is promising, as Keisuke Honda played under his supervision in Milan in 2014/2015. This season was Honda's best in Milan, as he recorded his most starts, most matches played, most minutes played, most goals scored (6), and most assists during his time in Milan. https://www.sponichi.co.jp/soccer/news/2020/07/06/kiji/20200705s00002019593000c.html
According to reports from Turkey, Yuto Nagatomo wants to stay at Istanbul, and last season's 10th-placed team Kasımpaşa and newly promoted Fatih Karagümrük are mentioned as possible destinations. https://m.fotospor.com/amp/haber-galatasaray-nagatomo-kasimpasa-ya-da-karagumruke-390317
He must like binzantium ruins and the like to join a newly promoted turkey club. His wife agree to live in Turkey with him or she is in Japan (maybe for work)?
