Report by our collaborator Kenji Tamaki - Salapassion

Interesting news from Japan: the well known japanese national team player Rikarudo Higa has finally decided to concentrate on his futsal career. Consequently he has just left his former soccer club FC Ryukyu (Soccer club) and immediately signed with the J League club Taiyoyakuhin/BANFF (tough in the J League they will play with the "Nagoya Oceans" denomination).

Higa, who has third-generation brazilian origins, declared "I'm 33 years old and few time me to play as a top category player. The next World Cup will be last chance for me to represent Japan and I have therefore decided not to play soccer anymore and concentrate on Futsal."
