Player Info

Atsushi Kawata is a proven goal-scorer and veteran striker leading the line for Kochi United. Now 33, the forward possesses a classic penalty-box instinct, clever movement, and a reliable finishing touch that has yielded goals at multiple levels. Kawata's career began at the prestigious Kyoto Sanga academy, and he announced himself with a prolific spell at Fujieda MYFC in the J3 League, where his goal tally attracted widespread attention. This led to a move to J1 side Nagoya Grampus, where he faced stiffer competition but still managed to contribute important goals in all competitions. In search of regular playing time, he has found a home at Kochi United, where his experience and predatory instincts make him the focal point of the attack. Throughout his journey, Kawata has been a consistent threat, with his individual golden boot awards at lower levels standing as testament to his natural scoring ability. Known for his calmness in front of goal, Kawata remains a valuable asset whose career is defined by a natural ability to find the back of the net.
