[Comment from Mr. Okano]
"Hello, I'm Masayuki Okano.
I am now back in Urawa as the first Reds brand ambassador!

The "world's most enthusiastic support" that cheered us on regardless of whether we were playing at home or away is deeply engraved in my memory and I still can't forget it. Even now, when I think about it, I can't stop shivering!
I will work enthusiastically, or rather "passionately," to the best of my ability in order to make Urawa Reds, the most passionate club in the world, loved by even more people and to increase the number of my teammates as much as possible.

The Wild One is still running at full speed!
thank you!"
