Spanish Primera Liga club Real Sociedad and Japanese club Kyoto Sanga announced the transfer of Kazunari Kita (20) at the same time on the 23rd (Korea time). It is reported that the option to fully rent after the lease is included as a condition of one year lease until June 30, 2026.
Gita is a Kyoto Youth native who was promoted to the professional team in January 2024 and has played in five official games so far. Although his professional career is short, it seems that he was recruited based on his performance in the Japanese U-20 national team.
Guitar will be trained immediately in Sociedad B team. Martin Subimendi (Arnall) and Mikel Oyarsabal (Sociedad) have become key Sociedad players through Team B. If he performs impressively in Team B, he may be promoted to the first team in Sociedad, where Takefusa Kubo from Japan is involved.
Kita said on the official Kyoto website "11 years with the best team, thank you very much. I was born and raised in Kyoto, and I was really happy to become the Kyoto player I dreamed of. I am so sorry to leave Kyoto, but I will do my best to tell you good news so that it can remain in your memory a little. I'm going to be a big star."
The guitar is a 1m 89-tall center back and is characterized by being left-footed. He is one year younger than Japan's national center back Takai Gota (21), who moved to Tottenham this summer.
