[Player comments]
``I have decided to permanently transfer to Shimizu S-Pulse.
During the one and a half years I was there, there were an overwhelming number of things that didn't go well, and I really felt that my abilities were lacking.
There were many days when I felt frustrated, and many times I felt frustrated because I couldn't live up to my expectations.
I am truly sorry that I have repeatedly failed the expectations of the club, fans, and supporters.
I want to grow strong and big in Shimizu in order to improve my soccer career once again.
Thank you very much for the past year and a half.”
