MOREIRA Ozu (Tokyo Verdy BS)
Each year, I have trained tirelessly to compete against the top players of the world. I am striving to become the best Fixo in the world, and I have given my efforts to achieve great results with my club and the national team. I am very honoured to be named as the Best Five for the fifth time, and I am very thankful for everyone who has supported me. I will continue to work hard and strive to become a player that can lead the team to victory at the World Cup.
