Player Info

Kazuyoshi Miura, known universally as "King Kazu," is a living legend of Japanese football and the world's oldest professional footballer, currently playing for Fukushima United FC. At an astonishing 59 years of age, Miura's career spans over four decades, beginning in Brazil before he returned to Japan to become the iconic face of the J.League's launch in the early 1990s. His peak years with Verdy Kawasaki (now Tokyo Verdy) saw him win multiple league titles and become the first Japanese player to win the Asian Footballer of the Year award. A technically gifted striker with flair and goal-scoring instinct, he was the superstar who brought football to the masses in Japan. His later career has been a remarkable journey of passion, seeing him play for clubs in Japan, Australia, and back again, constantly defying age. For Fukushima United in the J3 League, he is more than a player; he is an inspiration. King Kazu's career is a testament to unparalleled longevity and an undying love for the game.
