Well, "career end is nearing" doesn't need to mean that it's right around the corner. I'd say at age 26-28 you are considered at the peak and around half of your pro career, after that you are nearing the end more and more.

(I do recognize that women football players tend to retire way earlier than on the men's side, financial reasons remaining a big part of that. In Iwabuchi's case though I'd think her ability will enable here to not to have to worry about the financial side as much as others if she decides to continue playing. A bigger question is her injury proneness she suffered on in the past.)

 

The injury proneness is what I had in mind. She might have realized that getting injured as frequently as she does is not good overall. As you indicated, she is quite young. However, there could be longterm consequences from her injuries if she would keep going.

 

Nadeshiko League player movement.

Sure we're coming to the end of the transfer period. A couple of teams have posted their 2023 squad lists and training is underway. DR Hiroshima are still silent so their movement is still incomplete.

Former U17 Coach Michihisa Kano is now U19 coach

New U15 coach is Sadayoshi Shirai.

Interesting to note both these coaches played in Brazil sometime during their career.

 

@Elstree Thanks for the list...

 

The above sure looks like a lot of hard work...Cheers

 

Rico Tsutsui and Shinomi Koyama join INAC Kobe on loan from Cerezo. I guess this is to get time on the field before next season.

Blissett can tell us how good is her Italian.

 

Hamano jumped right into Hammarby starting XI in their first match of the season (test game vs. AIK). Let's see if she manages to keep her place in it.

 

I want to make it clear that this isn't a transfer...It's some sort of trip the JFA academy organized to participate in Bayern's training session. Bayern may have their eyes on them but they are still JFA academy players and will/have return(ed) to Japan.

The fact that both these young players seem to be taller than Kumagai is impressive.

 

yeah it's another confirmation of clear shift in selection process in Japan that happened during last few years. Clubs are pushing now for more tall players like those three. I guess the "bar" is now at 165-ish cm and above (Fujino, Yamamoto, Kinoshita). In the future its gonna be much harder for players like Miki Ito or even Yui Hasegawa to rise (so to speak) above tall competition.

Uchida Konomi leaves Sanfrecce Hiroshima and joins Okayama Yunogo Belle.
https://www.yunogo-belle.com/single-post/news-230120

 

Yeah, good that you beat me to it. As much as I'd love to see those players here I wanted to point that out as well.

FC Bayern has a cooperation with JFA:
https://fcbayern.com/en/news/2022/04/japanese-fa-cooperation
And also some schools in Japan?
https://fcbayern.com/en/club/international-youth-programs/country/japan

Unfortunately nothing about the women's side of all that, though I sure hope Kumagai ends up helping some prospects actually join Bayern.

Beleza 2 Albi 0...(Fujino Ueki)
Game played mostly in Albi's half...nice long pass from Rumi for Ueki's second goal reminiscent of some of Sakaguchi's long passes back in the day...can't see Albi coming back from two down
