■Comment from Akasaki:
"I am extremely grateful to Kashima Antlers for their support since my time at Tsukuba University as a special designated player, and to the fans and supporters who always fought with me, both home and away. It is an invaluable asset to me that I was able to play for this traditional club and win all titles, and also to play with Mitsuo-san, Soga-san, Koji-san, and Moto-san in my first year as a professional, experiencing professionalism firsthand. I feel fortunate to have started my professional career at Antlers, and I sincerely thank everyone involved with the club and the local community who love and support the club. Thank you very much."
