Grampus Win Race to Sign Mu

Nagoya sign Mie native Mu Kanazaki from relegated OIta Trinita. This should prove a great signing since the 20-year old Mu is one of the best young midfielders in the league, and he adds some creativity in a position where we badly need it.

If the team succeeds in signing Tulio from Urawa, and keeps key defender Maya Yoshida, then we should have a much better season next year and could well challenge for the title. (Update 21 Dec.: It looks like we may well sign Tulio as well.)
