“In terms of adaptation, today I feel in good condition. Yesterday it was really hot, but it didn’t matter. I will adapt to this city,” said Yamamoto.
Yamamoto received a positive response. The 25-year-old footballer is also happy to be able to strengthen Persebaya because it has a large fan base in the country.
“This club is amazing, moreover I will be playing in front of fanatical supporters in Surabaya, I am very happy,” he said.
