People you should know-Takuya Yamada

"Captain" Yamada made his debut when the squad was based in Kawasaki in 1997 against (then) prefecture rival Hiratsuka (Shonan) Bellmare. Yamada had arguably his best year in 2003 when he nothced 10 goals for the club in a DF role which propeled him to some national team appearances. Arguably his finest moment came in the first day of 2005 when Verdy claimed a trophy for the first time in 10 years when the team triumphed in the Emperors Cup against perrenial power Jubilo Iwata. 2005 would see the captain preside over something that could be likened to Green Titanic, when the team sunk to 17th out of 18 teams and a place in their current home, J2. You can now find Yamada plying his trade for the pink and purple clad Cerezo Osaka.
