About the player
Inoue Ryota learned the game at Bunan High School and then spent four years at Rissho University before turning professional, joining Zweigen Kanazawa in February 2023 as a centre-back. That first taste of the professional game came with a demotion: Kanazawa dropped into J3 during his time there, and he played on in the third tier through the 2024 season rather than moving on straight away.
A switch to Blaublitz Akita in January 2025 put him back in J2, where he made around nineteen appearances before a bigger step arrived that August: a permanent move to Tokyo Verdy. He has settled into the role, making around eighteen to nineteen league appearances for the club since arriving.
He wears the number 5 shirt at Verdy and is regarded as a versatile option at the back, comfortable operating in both a four-man and a three-man defence. There have been no individual awards or international call-ups to note so far.
