■Comment from Player Soma:
"To everyone involved with Kashima Antlers, thank you very much. When my transfer was decided, I came to Kashima with the desire to fight for the team, win titles, and grow a lot. I am very frustrated that I couldn't play as ideally as I wanted. From the players and staff, during the time I was able to play and the time I spent facing myself in rehabilitation, I learned a lot and experienced an atmosphere I had never felt before. The supporters always supported me in various ways, with warm applause and loving boos. That's why I wanted to share more joy with everyone. I'm truly disappointed that I couldn't repay you through my performance. However, I truly grew a lot in these six months. I will use that experience to grow even more when I return to Nagoya Grampus and work hard so that I can always be supported. This season, when I play against you as an opposing team, I will show my growth in the form of goals! It was only half a year, but thank you very much."
