Japan Coach Defends Kyogo’s Selection Amidst Irony of Maeda’s Form
Japan's national team coach, Hajime Moriyasu, has come under scrutiny following his decision to include Celtic's Kyogo Furuhashi in the latest squad, despite the striker's form being outshone by his teammate Daizen Maeda. Moriyasu defended his choice, emphasizing Kyogo's unique contribution to the team and his potential impact on upcoming matches.
The selection has sparked discussions among fans and analysts, especially given the irony highlighted by Maeda's recent performances. Maeda, also from Celtic, has been in red-hot form, yet it is Kyogo who has been called up. This decision has led to debates on team strategy and player selection criteria.
Adding to the narrative, there has been talk about Kyogo's future at Celtic, with some suggesting a potential exit. Interestingly, a move to Rennes, which seemed harsh at the time, might have played a crucial role in his development and current standing in the national team setup.
