Wen Chun: International players such as Takumi Minami and Misato oppose the Japanese team s recruitment of the suspected sexual assault of Haebu Sano

According to the Japanese media "Weekly Wenchun", the previous incident of Mainz midfielder Sano Hibashi returning to the Japanese national team has aroused some dissatisfaction, and the close relationship between the player and Mori Boichi's agency has also caused doubts.

Last July, Sano Hiju was arrested for suspected sexual assault on a woman, and Mainz just announced his player to join the team on July 4. After the incident, it was believed that Sano Haizhou's career was ruined, but in the end, Sano Haizhou was released on July 29 and officially joined Mainz in August after the procuratorate terminated the investigation. However, due to this incident, Sano Hiba, who gradually settled in Mainz's main midfielder and his value also soared sharply, failed to return to the Japanese national team during the period.

In the Asian World Cup this month, the Japanese team, which has already qualified in advance, decided to inspect more players. Without recruiting many of the previous national team's main players, Sano Hiba was able to return to the Japanese national team. After the season, the players returned to Japan to hold a press conference for apology and apologized to the media and the public for their previous suspected sexual assault.

It is reported that Sano Haiju admitted to the suspicion when interrogated by the police and apologized again after being released, saying that it caused great trouble to the victim and did not deny sexual assault. It is supposed that the victim had negotiated settlement with Mitsushi Sano. One month, the prosecutor announced that he would not prosecute him, and the reasons were not made public.

Moribaki recently explained why he summoned Sano Haizhou and said: "It can be said that he 'makes a mistake', but when we regard the team as a 'family', as a coach, communicate with a player, and face the mistakes made by the opponent, should we completely eliminate them from society and even the football world? I think, as family members, we should give him a chance to start over."

"Weekly Wenchun" said that Moribaki's idea has always been: if he can qualify for the World Cup, let Sano Haizhou return to the national team. However, there were opposition voices among the main members of the Japanese national team. According to a relevant person from the Japanese Football Association, in an interview with Wen Chun, "Takumi Minamino, Misato, Dorae and others who were not recruited this time oppose the recruitment of Sano Hibashi." The same source also said that the sponsors of the Japanese national team are also strongly worried about their image damage.

In addition, some people questioned the relationship between Mori Boichi and Mitsuki Sano. Because the president of Sano Haizhou's agency UDN SPORTS has a close relationship with Morikazu, the two worked with Japan's U20 at the Sendai Chinese Valentine Club. Mori Boichi recently publicly stated that he had been taken care of by UDN. Some people have privately discussed that the recruitment may have been affected by UDN. What is worth paying attention to is the younger brother of Sano Haizhou and the other affiliated with UDN, Sano Hokuda, who is also affiliated with UDN, was also selected for this national team.
