Portimonense will buy another japanese player: https://www.record.pt/futebol/futeb...-de-fora-do-mundial2018-provoca-prejuizo.html Who do you think is this player? My bet is Shota Kaneko.

A bit old news by now, but Iwata's Guilherme have been sent home with his tail between his legs. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/sports...a-terminate-guilhermes-contract/#.WxEDXMguDOQ It's most likely related to what happened in the video below, but as some people have mentioned already there is usually more than one side to a story and both the referee and Marinos-players/staff are also partly to blame. https://www.fourfourtwo.com/feature...guilherme-goes-rampage-after-seeing-red-japan
Urawa have signed Fabricio. Pretty good signing. He did well at Kashima, especially scoring that winning goal in the Emperor's Cup final before he left. Pretty good in Portugal as well. I mean I've seen some highlights with him because played for the same team like Shoya.
Yoshito Okubo set to move to Jubilo Iwata: https://headlines.yahoo.co.jp/hl?a=20180625-00000006-spnannex-socc
Torres to Sagan.... After Nakatani they got Eduardo Neto from Frontale. Okubo to Iwata official! Vissel let their best foreign player to go. A good money deal anyway. Seems the Kobe side received around 5 mil $ for Jung for Qatari side Al Sadd. It was to make room for Iniesta.
You have to wonder now WHO will defend Vissel's goal, since Jung was adapted as CB. I don't see that going well for them. Wouldn't it be better to let Leandro go?
Agree. But they bought a new CB (Osaki, from Tokushima Vortis), he may start alongside H.Watanabe, with Nasu and Kitamoto as back-ups.
After Sekine another important player of Petrovic's era is set to leave. Kashiwagi to Portimonense. Just a rumor for now.
That's good for him. I feel he's stagnated a bit in Japan, so a spell overseas might be good. He certainly got the talent/skills.
young striker pierce waring signs for cerezo from melbourne victory in the a-league. half-japanese and played for australia at the u17 wc a few years ago. interesting signing.
Naomichi Ueda reportedly set for a move to newly promoted Cercle Brugge in the Belgian Jupiler Pro League.
Shoji may be leaving too, there is an offer from Strausbourg. Good to see more Japanese DFs moving abroad, hoping to see more Japanese Gks such as Nakamura do the same too.
Ueda transfer to Cercle Brugge is official pending a medical, as announced by Kashima. 【お知らせ】植田選手のベルギーリーグ1部セルクル・ブルージュKSVへの完全移籍に関して、クラブ間の基本合意に達しました。植田選手のコメント・詳細に関しては、公式サイトをご覧ください:https://t.co/lOfyjRbKth #kashima #antlers pic.twitter.com/hQhUPDrT63— 鹿島アントラーズ (@atlrs_official) July 12, 2018
good for him. Cercle Brugge is partially owned by AS Monaco. Perhaps if he performs well they might be interested in him in the future.
He will need to improve a lot more in order to reach that level. Actually, I think a club with lesser expectations like Marseille might suit him more as a future option. AS Monaco is a bigger club currently and their players are much better.
