Kento Hashimoto (橋本 拳人, Hashimoto Kento; born August 16, 1993) is a Japanese football player who plays as a defensive midfielder for J1 League club FC Tokyo and the Japan national team.
Club career
FC Tokyo
Considered one of the best prospects in FC Tokyo's youth ranks, he first joined the first-team squad from the 2011 J.League Division 2 season.[1] He didn't manage to amass much playing time in the squad, so Hashimoto was loaned to Roasso Kumamoto for the 2013 and 2014 seasons.[2]
Rostov
On 9 July 2020, Russian Premier League club FC Rostov announced that they had reached an agreement with FC Tokyo for Hashimoto's transfer, and he would move pending a medical. The Japanese footballer signed a 4-year contract with Rostov after arriving in Russia and completing the medical exam.[3] On 23 August 2020, he scored his first goal for Rostov to secure a 1–0 away victory over FC Ufa.[4] In their next game 3 days later he once again scored the only goal of the game to beat FC Ural Yekaterinburg 1–0.[5]
On 19 February 2021, Rostov removed Hashimoto from their official squad as registered with the league. That was expected to be temporary, as Russian clubs are only allowed to have 8 foreign players registered at the same time, and Hashimoto was injured at the time.[6] He was returned to the squad list on 24 February after the loan of David Toshevski freed up a foreign player spot.[7]
Loan to Vissel Kobe
On 27 March 2022, Hashimoto returned to Japan and signed for Vissel Kobe firstly on a three-month transfer from Russia's FC Rostov after a FIFA ruling temporarily freezing the contracts of foreign players signed with Russian clubs and allowing them to go elsewhere.[8] On 1 July 2022, his contract was officially extended for an undisclosed period.[9]
Huesca
On 18 July 2022, Hashimoto signed with Huesca in Spain.[10] On 3 September 2023, Hashimoto returned to Huesca on a permanent basis and signed a two-year contract.[11]
Eibar
On 29 August 2024, Hashimoto signed a one-year deal with Eibar also in the Spanish Segunda División.[12]
Return to FC Tokyo
On 9 January 2025, Eibar announce official transfer of Hashimoto to J1 club FC Tokyo for 2025 season.[13]
International career
Hashimoto made his debut for the Japan national football team on 26 March 2019 in a friendly against Bolivia, as a starter.[14]
