KAWASAKI — Junichi Inamoto believes he can be the final piece in Kawasaki Frontale's championship puzzle after ending his eight-and-a-half year spell in Europe to join last season's J. League runnerup.
Frontale have yet to win a title despite going close on numerous occasions, and hope to rectify that with the signing of the 30-year-old midfielder whose wandering career has taken him to clubs in England, Turkey, Germany and France since leaving Gamba Osaka in 2001.
Inamoto admits Kawasaki does not have the storied history of some other J. League clubs, but believes his new team has all the tools needed to end Kashima Antlers' dominance over the coming season.
