Kodo Kasai

This flamboyant Japanese full-back burns up the flank with relentless stamina, turning a childhood allergy to grass into a fuel to dominate every blade of turf. While his aggressive speed and clinical interceptions are world-class, his occasionally erratic sliding tackles prove he is as unpredictable as he is electrifying. He is a high-octane defender who attacks the pitch with pure, unapologetic flair.
