□Comment from Seiji KIMURA

"There was a period when I was on loan to other clubs, but I have been playing soccer as an FC Tokyo player for about 11 years since the first year of junior high school.
This time, it will be a full transfer, so for the first time, the title of FC Tokyo will be completely removed.
Thank you very much for all the support so far.

No matter when or which team I am with, I believe that I am who I am today thanks to everyone who has supported me.
Although the time I was able to play as a Tokyo player was short, I feel very happy to have been able to play wearing the Tokyo uniform at Ajinomoto Stadium.
I think the opportunities for people to watch matches will significantly decrease due to the time difference while playing for an overseas team, but I will do my best to make sure news of my success reaches Japan.

I sincerely wish for Tokyo's continued progress. Thank you very much!
