■Comments from the person himself
“My name is Mikami, and I have been appointed as the head of Gamba Osaka Football Headquarters.
First of all, I would like to express my heartfelt respect to everyone who has supported Gamba Osaka up until now.
While cherishing what has been accumulated over our long history, we will work together with everyone involved with the club to achieve the victory that Gamba Osaka should aim for.
Beyond that, I am confident that together with everyone we can win titles and create a future for the club with its eyes set on the world.
Also, when I attended a match at Panasonic Stadium Suita during the 2025 season, I was deeply impressed by the overwhelming atmosphere that surrounded the stadium and the passion of the supporters who strongly supported the team. The passion I felt there led to a strong desire to work as a member of Gamba Osaka, to walk alongside everyone, and to share the joy together.
We will do our best to help Gamba Osaka move forward even more strongly, so we ask for your continued support and encouragement. ”
