■Comment from Nagato:
“Thank you for your warm, strong, and sometimes harsh support over the past two years since I joined. Playing for Kashima Antlers, a club that always demands championships, was an inspiring daily experience for me. Although it was two years of regret as we couldn't win any titles, the time I spent with the players, staff, and the Antlers family is a precious asset. I will definitely grow as a professional football player, and I look forward to competing against Antlers in the future.”
