Argentinos Juniors signs Japanese soccer player Ryoga Kida. The 18-year-old will be on loan until December 31, with a purchase option.

He will initially join the Reserve team led by Cristian Zermatten. Kida began playing soccer in the Tokyo Verdy junior team, then moved to FC Tama until reaching the youth teams of Nagoya Grampus, which allowed him to debut in the first division last year. Until now, only two Japanese footballers have played in Argentine football: Nahoiro Takahara in Boca and Yasuke Kato in Huracán.
