Takehiro TomiyasuWe have reached a mutual agreement with Takehiro Tomiyasu to end his contract with immediate effect.
The 26-year-old defender, who joined us from Bologna in August 2021, made 84 appearances in all competitions during his time with the club.
Japanese international Tomi immediately settled at right-back after his signing, winning our Player of the Month award in September 2021, an accolade he collected again in October 2023.
Having begun his career at J1 League side Avispa Fukuoka, Tomi moved to Belgian outfit Sint-Truiden in 2018 and won the club’s Player of the Season award before moving to Italy.
