Description

Yūto Nagatomo (長友佑都, Nagatomo Yūto; born 12 September 1986) is a Japanese professional footballer who plays as a full back for J1 League club FC Tokyo and the Japan national team.

A Meiji University graduate, Nagatomo started his professional career with FC Tokyo in 2007, quickly establishing himself as a first choice both within the team and the Japan national team. He would go on to play in Europe for over a decade, first joining Cesena in 2010, and then enjoying stints with Inter Milan (where he made over 200 appearances over 7 years), Galatasaray and Olympique Marseille. He would then return to boyhood club FC Tokyo in September 2021.

During his club career, Nagatomo has won a J.League Cup in 2009 (with Tokyo), a Coppa Italia in 2011 (with Inter), two back-to-back Turkish titles in 2018 and 2019, a Turkish Cup and a Turkish Super Cup in 2019. He also won an individual award as AFC's Asian International Player of the Year in 2013.

Having made 146 appearances, Nagatomo is Japan's second-most capped player of all time. Having won his first cap for the Samurai Blue in 2008, the full-back has represented Japan at one edition of the Olympic Games (in 2008), five consecutive World Cups (in 2010, 2014, 2018, 2022 and 2026), three consecutive Asian Cups (in 2011, 2015 and 2019) and one Confederations Cup (in 2013). He was part of the squad that won the Asian Cup in 2011 and the one that finished as runners-up in the same competition in 2019.
