Previously, Takefusa Kubo trained separately under the guidance of a therapist and fitness coach after injuring his left thigh in the match against Alaves in La Liga on January 3.
This is Takefusa Kubo's first full training session since joining the Japanese national team. The presence of the 2001-born star is extremely important for the "Blue Samurai" at this time.
Takefusa Kubo is the most expensive player in the 2023 Asian Cup (according to Transfermarkt) with 60 million euros. This winger is an irreplaceable factor in coach Hajime Moriyasu's squad in the journey to conquer the championship of the tournament in Qatar.

Speaking to the press, Takefusa Kubo said: "I think everything is fine. The pain is no longer a problem for me. I will talk to the medical team and the staff. My position now is different from the last time I went to Qatar (World Cup 2022). I want to improve my scoring skills. My goal is to win and play impressively."
Takefusa Kubo grew up in the Real Madrid training academy. After being loaned to Villareal, Mallorca, Getafe, the Japanese striker moved to Real Sociedad in 2022. After 69 appearances for the Basque club, the star has scored 15 goals. This season alone, he has scored 6 goals and has 3 assists.
