First, it has been decided that Akinari Kawazura will join Mito HollyHock on a loan transfer. A "loan transfer" is a system where a player plays for another team for a fixed period. Kawazura is a highly capable defender, and he is expected to strengthen his new team's defense.
Next, it was decided that Takayoshi Ishihara will make a permanent transfer to Fukuyama City FC. Ishihara is a midfielder who has played in many matches and accumulated significant experience. In his new environment, he is expected to lead the team with the calm play typical of a veteran.
