□ Personal Comment
"Dear everyone who loves FC Tokyo, Happy New Year. I, Kota MIZUNUMA, will be transferring to Cerezo Osaka. I remember being warmly welcomed as a teammate by FC Tokyo about a year ago, and it made me very happy. Although it was a short year, I had many experiences on various stages, and it became a very intense season. I had a lot of worries about transferring within a year. I regret that I couldn't fulfill my responsibility towards winning titles, but I want to approach my future soccer life with determination so that this experience will never be in vain. Thank you very much."
