Does anyone know much about him?
He's having a decent first season outside of Japan at Mainz, but he'd still be an underwhelming signing. He also needs to stay at Mainz for a couple more seasons and prove himself, IMO.
After the Ayoze Perez links, it seems like we're mostly looking at low-risk young-ish attackers for squad depth.

Dont think he would be good enough at this stage for us, 17 games and 7 goals is what i read. Is that the best we can go for in January? Very underwhelming
Great name.
Mane - Martial - Muto
What a fecking hero. Hernandez-esque?
I haven't seen him but looking at his positioning looks like he can play RM-LM & CF. These are the types of players that would work well.
Wasn't chelsea interested in him this year before his move to mainz?

That is correct. He snubbed them for Mainz because he did not think he could get much playing time at Stamford Bridge.
There was a school of thought that Chelsea wanted him for their new shirt sponsor.
The sort of rough diamonds we need to scour for in January, we know LVG likes flexible players who work hard, he certainly fits that category.
Mouth-watering.Cant be that bad then can he?
Dont we have memphis?
Who?
Amazing how after 5 months of adapting people have given up on him. He's shown great signs whilst still adapting and he'll only get better and notably his recent form is much better.
He's going to have to shorten his name. We'll call him Memp from now on.
I liked him when I saw him playing for the Japanese national team. I don't think he's ready for United though.
誰だ?エルナンデスじゃない? すごいゴール密猟者のようです。
He looks a lot like Hernandez!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Poacher? Lets buy Chicha back then.
I eint seen him but considering he can play RM-L then i doubt he's a poacher.
Would be great if we bought him, and were relying on him and Martial for goals whilst Rooney just Rooneys.
But in all seriousness, as long as we have scouted properly and think hes ready, then would like to see it happen given we need attackers (strikers).

It would be worth it to me just to get United goals on TV again.
I'd understand if you weren't a van gaal supporter but what you say is something im really looking forward to.
Some players we have bought might be struggling for form; but i dont actually regret buying a single one of them. They all have a specific role to play in the squad.
Hopefully this january window will only lead to those rough diamonds coming in that need a few (but not many) polishes.
If I remember correctly he's pretty intelligent. Went to an elite university in Tokyo and put off moving to Europe to complete his studies.
United might take top billing in place of Leicester for a change.
Yeah, it's weird seeing them on TV.
It's K guys, I'll buy him on FIFA and will see how he plays like and report back.
Weirder still seeing them take up Uniteds spot on J-Sports. I think its twice now we've been dropped as a live game in favour of Leicester.
They're bigger than City over here. I still haven't seen any Leicester shirts though.
A great signing...if we were fecking Norwich!!
Jesus, has the bar really been lowered this far? Not the quality of player we should be looking at ffs!

Steve Bates says we've bid £12 million ....
Another one of those signings for more deals in Asia?
Who's Steve Bates?
And you base this on ? The guy has played less than 20 matches in the Bundesliga - and done really well. So why are you certain he is not good enough ? And I am not saying he IS good enough - I will be the first to admit I have absolutely no clue as I don't even think I have seen him play...but it's a bit strange to judge a player unless you have seen him play quite a few times.
where did he say that?
tbf Park was good for the money we paid, and Kagawa although he struggled a bit for us I think he could have done ok in different circumstances.
Not says there's any truth with this rumour though, and have no idea how good this guy is, but 'The Japanese Messi' sounds good.
Not one mention on his twitter, most likely bullshit

The prophet. At long last we've found him, send three mages to him, bring him money, money and money. Don't bring our season review though.
