Japanese footballer (born 2001)
Yuito Suzuki (鈴木 唯人, Suzuki Yuito; born 25 October 2001) is a Japanese professional footballer who plays as an attacking midfielder or a winger for German Bundesliga club SC Freiburg and the Japan national team.
After graduating from Ichiritsu Funabashi High School in 2019, Suzuki began his professional career with Shimizu S-Pulse, joining the club ahead of the 2020 season.
On 28 January 2023, Suzuki moved abroad to France and officially joined Ligue 1 club RC Strasbourg Alsace on loan for 2022–23 season.[1]
Suzuki moved to Danish Superliga club Brøndby on 12 August 2023, signing a four-year contract.[2] He made his debut for the club on 28 August, replacing Mathias Kvistgaarden in the 67th minute of a 1–0 league victory away against Vejle Boldklub.[3][4] On 27 September, he scored his first goal for the club in a 3–0 Danish Cup win over HIK.[5] His first league goal followed four days later, on 1 October, contributing to a 3–0 away victory against Hvidovre.[6] On 17 March 2024, Suzuki scored his first hat-trick, helping Brøndby to a 4–1 league win over Silkeborg.[7] Throughout the season, he scored nine goals and eight assists for the club in the league, as well as two goals and two assists in the Danish Cup.[8]
On 20 May 2025, it was announced that Suzuki would join German Bundesliga club SC Freiburg, with the transfer becoming effective on 1 July 2025.[9] The terms of the agreement were not officially disclosed, though kicker reported the base transfer fee to be €8 million.[10] In a statement announcing the signing, Freiburg board member Jochen Saier described Suzuki as “a player who can both score goals and set up his teammates,” adding: “His pace, flexibility and technique will improve our overall attacking play as a team.”[11]
Suzuki made his competitive debut for Freiburg on 16 August 2025, coming on for Patrick Osterhage in the 62nd minute of a 2–0 DFB-Pokal first-round win away to Sportfreunde Lotte at the Stadion am Lotter Kreuz.[12][13] He made his Bundesliga debut a week later, starting on the opening matchday of the 2025–26 season in a 3–1 home defeat to FC Augsburg at the Europa-Park Stadion, and was substituted after 70 minutes.[14][15]
On 23 October 2025, Suzuki scored his first competitive goal for Freiburg, opening the scoring in a 2–0 home win over Utrecht in the UEFA Europa League group stage.[16][17] His performance was praised by head coach Julian Schuster who highlighted Suzuki’s way of fighting back after recently finding himself on the fringes of the team.[18]
On 9 November 2025, Suzuki scored his first Bundesliga goal, his first-time finish setting Freiburg on their way to a 2–1 home win over FC St. Pauli.[19] In a piece published on 14 November, kicker described him as a “marathon runner” with a steep learning curve, reporting that a recent omission from the Japan national team squad had helped drive his improvement as he added further goals and assists for Freiburg.[20] On 22 November, he again opened the scoring, giving Freiburg a 1–0 lead away to Bayern Munich before the defending champions came back to win 6–2.[21][22]
International career
[edit]
Suzuki made his debut for the Japan national team on 6 June 2024 in a 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifier against Myanmar at the Thuwunna Stadium. He substituted Ritsu Dōan at half-time as Japan won 5–0.[23]
