Football veteran, Kaz, is announced in the starting line-up for the J-League opening game for the first time in nearly a decade. Kaz's selection indicates a new strategic approach by the team, hoping to capitalize on his years of experience. The selection has generated interest and enthusiasm among the fans of the team who are excited about the upcoming season.

With football being a celebrated sport in Japan, Kaz's return to the opening game after nine years signals a significant event with much fanfare. The player's comeback underlines his enduring popularity and appeal within the Japanese football community. Fans and members of the local football fraternity are delighted with his selection.

Comebacks in sports career are a universal theme. In the US or Europe, beloved veterans returning to the game after a significant absence would also create media buzz and fan excitement. One such similar instance is the return of NFL's Rob Gronkowski, who returned to the game after a year of retirement.
