The J2 League club Chiba City FC has officially announced that they have signed midfielder Naohiro Sugiyama from Gamba Osaka on loan until the end of the season.
The 25-year-old Naohiro Sugiyama, a product of the Kumamoto Red training system, was loaned to Yamagata Yamaden by Gamba Osaka this season and made a total of 17 appearances across all competitions for the team, scoring one goal.
Due to limited opportunities at Yamagata Yamaden, Gamba Osaka decided to terminate the loan agreement early and transfer him to Chiba City FC on loan.
