□Sotan TANABE Player Comment
"I have decided to transfer to Avispa Fukuoka. Over the past 10 years, I have had the opportunity to meet many wonderful players and staff members, and playing in front of the passionate voices of Tokyo fans and supporters has been a treasure in my life. This decision was not easy for me and I have been deeply troubled. I feel very sad right now, but I want to believe in the path I have chosen and enjoy playing for Avispa Fukuoka."
I will do my best to be able to play in front of all of you, so thank you for your continued support. I will also continue to support Tokyo. Thank you very much for the past 10 years.
