The Japanese Takuto Oshima (27 years old), the former midfielder of Craiova University, currently registered at FC Noah, the 2nd place in Armenia, could leave this summer for Zhejiang FC, the 7th place in China.
There, Oshima would be a colleague with Romanian midfielder Alexandru Mitriță, with whom he shared the dressing room in Romania the previous season, when the two played simultaneously at Craiova University, the current champion of the Super League.
According to GSP.ro, Oshima entered the Chinese transfer list for this summer's mercato, but for now there is still a lot to negotiate before the parties reach a consensus and the midfielder makes the move to the first league in China.
