■Comments from the person himself
"Hello! I'm Ryo HATSUSE. I have decided to return to Gamba after about seven years. When I transferred to Kobe, I went through a lot of conflicting emotions, but I decided to leave Gamba and work hard, hoping to show my growth. I also had the option of continuing to play overseas, but Gamba really needed me, so I decided to return to help them win the top spot in Japan and Asia, and bring back a strong Gamba once again. I will give everything I've built up so far, starting with practice, for Gamba. I look forward to the day when I can play in a packed Panasonic Stadium Suita!"
